Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.

Made this for my husband's birthday and he loved it! I took the suggestion of cutting the layers into two and putting jelly between but I also doubled the frosting and put THAT between the middle layers as well. DH raved about it for 2 days.
