PUMPKIN CARAMEL CUPCAKES
Not only do kids love to eat these cupcakes, they can help bake them, too. To make things even easier for them, we got the idea to dunk them in premade caramel apple dip instead of using frosting. -Donna Schaab, Belleville, Illinois

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Combine all cupcake ingredients in a mixing bowl with 1/3 cup of water. Whip with a whisk or fork for 2 minutes until well blended.
- Spray a 12-cup muffin pan with nonstick spray or line with baking cups. Evenly spoon batter into muffin cups.
- Place pan in the oven and cook for about 12 minutes (until cupcakes have puffed up but still appear a little gooey on top).
- Once cupcakes are cool enough to handle, arrange them closely on a plate so that the edges are touching. Place caramel and soymilk in a tall microwave-safe glass or dish (mixture will bubble and rise when heated).
- Microwave at medium power for 1 1/2 minutes. Stir mixture vigorously until smooth and thoroughly blended. (Return to microwave for 30 seconds at medium heat if caramel has not fully melted.) Immediately drizzle caramel sauce over cupcakes.
Tips:
- Use fresh pumpkin puree for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh pumpkin puree, you can use canned pumpkin puree, but be sure to drain it well before using.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the cupcakes tough.
- Fill the cupcake liners only 2/3 full. The cupcakes will rise as they bake.
- Bake the cupcakes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the cupcakes to cool completely before frosting them.
- For a richer flavor, use brown sugar in the frosting.
- If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a ziplock bag with the corner snipped off to pipe the frosting onto the cupcakes.
- Garnish the cupcakes with a sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice or chopped nuts.
Conclusion:
These pumpkin caramel cupcakes are the perfect fall treat. They're moist and flavorful, with a delicious caramel frosting. They're sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering. So, preheat your oven and get ready to bake up a batch of these delicious cupcakes!
