You will need these ingredients:

Cream Cheese- to create a soft smooth center

Vanilla– used for depth of flavor
Baking Soda– necessary item for perfect baking
Salt– without a pinch of salt, the flavor might be flat or cloyingly sweet
Pumpkin Spice– to punch up the taste
Pumpkin Puree- the base of this recipe
Vegetable Oil– add depth of flavor, and a silky quality
Cooking Spray- so nothing sticks
