Method
Cake Preparation
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking pan.
Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt.
Combine Wet Ingredients
In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, buttermilk, pumpkin puree, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until well combined.
Combine Mixtures
Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
Add Chocolate Chips
Fold in the semi-sweet chocolate chips gently into the batter.
Bake the Cake
Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Cool the Cake
Once baked, remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Frosting Preparation
Prepare the Frosting
In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and unsalted butter together until smooth and creamy.
Add Sugar and Vanilla
Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined and fluffy.
Frost the Cake
Once the cake has completely cooled, spread the cream cheese frosting evenly over the top of the cake.
