Time 50m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 ½ cups white sugar
¾ cup butter, softened
3 eggs
1 (15 ounce) can solid-pack pumpkin puree
2 ⅓ cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
¾ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon ground ginger
1 cup buttermilk
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
½ cup butter, softened
4 cups confectioners' sugar
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 24 muffin cups with paper liners.
  • Beat white sugar and 3/4 cup butter together in a bowl using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy; add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat pumpkin into creamed butter mixture.
  • Mix flour, pumpkin pie spice, 1 tablespoon cinnamon, baking powder, and ginger together in a bowl; stir into creamed butter mixture, alternating with buttermilk, until batter is smooth. Fill each muffin cup 3/4-full with batter.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center of a cupcake comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool in muffin tin for 10 minutes before transferring to wire rack.
  • Beat cream cheese and 1/2 cup butter together in a bowl using an electric mixer until fluffy. Beat confectioners' sugar, 2 teaspoons cinnamon, and vanilla extract into creamed butter until frosting is smooth. Spread frosting on each cupcake.

The cupcakes were good, but I think I would have liked them better with a different frosting.

I found the recipe to be a bit confusing. I had to make a few adjustments in order to get the cupcakes to turn out right.

I love that this recipe uses real pumpkin puree instead of canned pumpkin. It gives the cupcakes a much richer flavor.
