Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13-inch baking pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, and salt.
  3. In a separate large bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the sour cream and vanilla extract.
  4. Gradually mix in the dry ingredients until just blended. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
  5. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  6. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until the butter turns golden brown and has a nutty aroma. Remove from heat and let cool for 5 minutes.
  7. In a medium bowl, whisk together the brown butter, powdered sugar, and milk until smooth and creamy.
  8. Once the cake has cooled, spread the brown butter frosting evenly over the top. Serve and enjoy!
