Instructions
For the Cake
- Preheat the oven to 180C/350F/Gas 4. Grease a 10-inch bundt pan, and set aside.

- Whisk together the eggs. Add the sugars, and whisk until combined. Add the melted butter, yoghurt, and pumpkin and whisk until combined. Fold in the dry ingredients.
- Pour half of the batter into the prepared pan.
For the Filling
- Using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the cream cheese and sugar until combined. Beat in the egg and vanilla, then fold in the flour.
- Spread the cheesecake mixture evenly over the cake batter, then pour the remaining cake batter on top.
- Bake for about 60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the centre comes out clean with moist crumbs.
- Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting the cake onto a wire rack or serving plate to cool completely.
For the Frosting
- Whisk together the icing sugar, cream cheese, heavy cream, and vanilla extract until smooth, fairly thick and pourable. Add more heavy cream if needed.
- Pour over the cooled cake (or pipe it on using a piping bag), then slice and serve.
