Spiced Pumpkin Cake

Serves 12| Hands-On Time: 20m | Total Time: 4hr 00m

Ingredients
a.. 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature, plus more for the pan
b.. 3 cups all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled, plus more for the pan
c.. 5 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
d.. 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
e.. 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
f.. 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
g.. 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
h.. 3 large eggs
i.. 1 15-ounce can pumpkin puree (1 1?2 cups)
j.. 1/2 cup whole milk
k.. 1/4 cup molasses
l.. 1 1/4 cups confectioners' sugar
m.. 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

Directions
1.. Heat oven to 350° F. Butter and flour a 12-cup Bundt pan.
2.. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
3.. Using an electric mixer, beat the butter and granulated sugar on medium-high until fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Beat in the eggs, one at a time. Beat in the pumpkin puree, milk, and molasses (the mixture may appear curdled). Reduce the mixer speed to low; gradually add the flour mixture and mix until just combined (do not overmix).
4.. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 55 to 65 minutes. Let cool in the pan for 30 minutes, then invert onto a wire rack to cool completely.
5.. In a bowl, whisk together the confectioners' sugar and lemon juice until smooth. Drizzle over the cake. Let set before serving.
