Bake for 40 to ⏱️ 45 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cool completely in the pan.

For the spiced cream cheese frosting: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the cream cheese over medium speed until smooth. Add the butter, vanilla, and pumpkin pie spice and beat until well combined and creamy. Reduce the speed to low and gradually add the powdered sugar. Increase the speed to medium-high and beat until fluffy, about ⏱️ 1 minute.

To assemble: Spread the spiced cream cheese frosting on top of the cake. Cut into squares and serve. Keep leftovers in the fridge, as the frosting will soften.
