Reminiscent of carrot cake, this recipe lends easily to sweetness modification or whole grain flour substitutions to your tastes. The first time around in making it I was tempted to tweak it using less sugar and oil. Good thing I didn't - Lou Seibert Pappas had it perfectly balanced for the masses in her "A Harvest of Pumpkins and Squash" cookbook. The frosting is really not necessary - just a dusting of powdered sugar is sufficient.
