Cinderella Cake

[luvmycat]

Has anyone ever heard of a Cinderella Cake? I am not talking about a birthday cake but a spice-like cake. They had this in the lunchroom at my son's school the other day and he loves it! He ate all of it and half of mine.
It was a brown color with no icing. It kind of tasted like gingerbread but milder.
If anyone has a recipe for this I would like it.

Thanks,
Lynn

I am not sure if it had pumpkin in it but the ingredients sound right. It was yummy!
Thanks Christina.

Is that the color of the cake? The little bit of cinnamon in it wouldn't make it that much darker.

Your welcome - it took me hours of baking and picture taking to post the above. (LOL)

[luvmycat]

yes, that is the color. That is actually your cake? Nice job!
I might bake one sometime next week when he is out of school.
