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:
- Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Line a 12-hole cake tin with paper cases.
- Beat the butter and sugar together with an electric whisk until pale and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, and the vanilla extract. Briefly mix in the flour until just combined, and stir in the milk until the batter just falls off the beaters.
- Divide the mixture between the cases, leaving about 2 tbsp batter in the bowl. Add a pinch of salt to the caramel sauce if it's not salted caramel, then add ½ tsp to the tops of each cupcake. Use a teaspoon to cover the caramel sauce with the remaining batter. Bake for 15-20 mins until springy and golden. Leave to cool completely on a wire rack.
- Meanwhile, make the icing. Beat the butter and half of the icing sugar together, then tip in the remaining icing sugar and whisk vigorously until pale and fluffy. Stir in half of the caramel sauce, then spoon the mixture into a piping bag with a round or star nozzle.
- Pipe swirls of icing on top of the cooled cupcakes. Stir the remaining caramel sauce with a pinch of salt, if unsalted, then use to drizzle over the icing. Sprinkle over a small pinch of sea salt over each, if you like.

Tips:
- Use fresh pumpkin purée for the best flavor. You can make your own purée by roasting a pumpkin and then blending the flesh until smooth.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can result in tough, dense cupcakes.
- Bake the cupcakes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking can result in dry, crumbly cupcakes.
- Let the cupcakes cool completely before frosting them. This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.
- Store the cupcakes in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
Conclusion:
These pumpkin salted caramel cupcakes are a delicious and festive treat that is perfect for fall. They are easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With their moist pumpkin cake, creamy salted caramel frosting, and sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice, these cupcakes are sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
