Cooking instruction summary:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and line a 13x9 baking dish with parchment paper. Lightly grease the parchment and any exposed portions of the pan with butter or oil.In a medium bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, eggs, sugar, canola oil, molasses, and maple syrup until blended. In a separate, larger bowl, add the flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and ground cloves, stirring to combine. Slowly pour the wet mixture into the dry and stir gently until no dry spots remain. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, smooth the surface with a rubber spatula, and bake for 28 to 32 minutes until a toothpick inserted near the center of the cake comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes, then carefully remove it onto a wire rack to cool completely. (You may need to do a couple inversions to transfer the cake to the cooling rack; do this gently to avoid splits and breaks.)Once the cake has cooled to room temperature, carefully peel off the parchment paper. Prepare the frosting by whipping the butter in a medium bowl until fluffy. Add the pumpkin pie spice and the powdered sugar, a little bit at a time, beating after each addition. Lastly, add the cream and vanilla extract and beat until combined. Use a rubber or offset spatula to frost the cake as desired. Decorate only the top as I did, or spread the frosting a little more thinly and cover the sides as well. Sprinkle the chopped, toasted walnuts over the top, slice, and serve.

Food Joke

VIRUS WARNING**** If you received an e-mail with a subject line of "Badtimes," delete it immediately without reading it! It is the most dangerous E-mail virus yet. It will re-write your hard drive. Not only that, but it will scramble any disks that are even close to your computer. It will recalibrate your refrigerator's settings so all your ice cream melts and your milk curdles. It will demagnitize the strips on all your credit cards, reprogram your ATM access codes, screw up the tracking on your VCR and use subspace field harmonics to scratch any CD's you try to play. It will give your ex-boy/girlfriend your new phone number. It will mix antifreeze into your fish tank. It will drink all your beer and leave your dirty socks on the coffee table when there's company coming over. It will hide your car keys when you are late for work and interfere with your car radio so that you hear only static while stuck in traffic. Badtimes will make you fall in love with a hardened pedophile. It will give you nightmares about circus midgets. It will replace your shampoo with Nair and your Nair with Rogaine, all while dating your current boy/girlfriend behind your back and billing their hotel rendezvous to your Visa card. Badtimes will give you Dutch Elm disease. It will leave the toilet seat up and leave the hairdryer plugged in dangerously close to a full bathtub. It will not only remove the forbidden tags from your mattress and pillows, it will refill your skim milk with whole. It is insidious and subtle. It is dangerous and terrifying to behold. It is also a rather interesting shade of mauve. These are just a few of the signs. BE AFRAID! BE VERY AFRAID!
