Pumpkin Cake With Cream Cheese Glaze
The oranges are optional, but they add a burst of freshness to the cake. If you make the cake a day ahead, garnish with orange wedges shortly before serving. You can also bake the cake in a Bundt pan, but reduce the oven temperature to 325º.

Pumpkin-Cranberry Cake
A crunchy walnut and brown sugar topping is perfectly suited for this sweet (and slightly tart) sheet cake. Yogurt, in addition to canned pumpkin, keeps this cake moist and flavorful.
