My grandmother used to make these around the holidays. They are a big hit at office parties and with kids! They are very quick and easy. If you want icing, I recommend whipped cream cheese icing, but they are very good without it.

Categories     Dessert

Time 40m

Yield 24 cupcakes, 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (18 1/4 ounce) box yellow cake mix
4 egg whites
1/3 cup water
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin
2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 (8 ounce) package neufchatel cheese, room temperature
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
2 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and line two 12-muffin pans with paper baking cups.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, egg whites, water, oil, pumpkin, pumpkin pie spice and cinnamon.
  • Beat on medium speed for 2-3 minutes until smooth.
  • Fill each paper cup about 3/4 full with batter.
  • Bake for 18-22 minutes or until an inserted toothpick in the center comes out clean. Set aside on metal rack to cool.
  • Prepare frosting by placing cream cheese, butter, sugar and cinnamon in a small mixing bowl.
  • Beat on medium until well-combined and smooth.
  • For a prettier, more elegant presentation, use a piping bag to frost cooled cupcakes. Decorate with sprinkles or other fall/halloween deco items if desired.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling.
  • Use fresh pumpkin puree: Fresh pumpkin puree will give your cupcakes the best flavor. If you don't have fresh pumpkin puree, you can use canned pumpkin puree, but make sure to drain it well before using.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make your cupcakes tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a muffin pan with liners: This will help your cupcakes bake evenly and prevent them from sticking to the pan.
  • Fill the muffin cups about 2/3 full: This will prevent the cupcakes from overflowing.
  • Bake the cupcakes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This will ensure that the cupcakes are cooked through.
  • Let the cupcakes cool completely before frosting them: This will help the frosting set properly.

Conclusion:

These pumpkin cupcakes are easy to make and always a hit with everyone who tries them. They're moist, flavorful, and the perfect fall treat. Whether you're serving them at a party or just enjoying them at home, these cupcakes are sure to be a hit.
