Servings: persons

1 cup Buttermilk
1 cup Water
2/3 cups Canola Oil
2 cups Sugar
2 whole Eggs
1 teaspoon Baking Soda
1/2 teaspoons Salt
2 cups All-purpose Flour
3/4 cups Cocoa Powder
FOR THE FILLING:
8 ounces, weight Cream Cheese, Room Temperature
1/3 cups Canned Pumpkin
1/4 cups Sugar
1/4 teaspoons Cinnamon
FOR THE GANACHE:
1/2 cups Whipping Cream
4 ounces, fluid Semi-sweet Chocolate, Chopped

1
Preheat oven to 350u00b0F. Spray two round 9x2 cake pans with cooking spray and line with parchment. I buy the pre-cut round parchment liners. Then spray the parchment, too.
2
In a large bowl, mix buttermilk, water, oil, sugar, eggs baking soda, and salt with a whisk. Add flour and cocoa powder and whisk until combined.
3
Pour evenly into prepared pans. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Do not overcook.
4
Mix all filling ingredients in a stand mixer (or hand mixer) until smooth. There might be some cream cheese lumpiness, so keep mixing.
5
When cakes are completely cool, you can assemble. Spread filling over one layer of cake and top with a second layer.
6
Make the ganache by bringing whipped cream to a low boil of medium-high heat. Remove from heat and add chocolate. Let it stand for 5 minutes then stir until smooth. Let it cool for about 10 minutes and stir again.
7
Pour ganache over cake, letting it drip down the sides. Put in refrigerator until set.
