Pumpkin Cupcakes With Creamy Cream Cheese Frosting

"These are very moist and rise very high when baked, they are fairly sweet so you may wish to reduce the sugar by a few tablespoons. You may also bake in jumbo muffin tins to yield 10 and increasing the baking time. These are very good!"

  1. Couldn't get better....my kids loved these and are super easy to make. They are similar to a pumkin roll without all the extra mess :)
     
  2. Oh wow! I LOVE this recipe. I made these cupcakes for my son's 18th birthday since he loves pumplin pie. He loved them. I am not a fan of pumpkin myself but these won me over. My whole family raved about them.<br/><br/>I did make a few changes though. I added 1/4f of ginger and nutmeg. They were savory and not very sweet which went well with the cream cheese. I recommend this recipe to anyone even if you don't care for pumpkin. Yes it's that good.
     
  3. Once again, can't go wrong with a recipe from Kittencal!! I made this tonight to bring to work and it was SOOO GOOD! Super moist, full of pumpkin flavor, and easy to make! It made 24 cupcakes for me.
     
  4. Delicious! Wanted a little treat today so decided to make cupcakes. Then I realized that I had loaned my muffin tins to my neighbor. Oh no!! Poured the batter into a 9 x 13 pan and watched the bake time. As a cake it was ready in 30 minutes. Quick and easy and oh so tasty! A great way to welcome fall! Thanks Kitt!
