Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 box duncan hines spice cake mix
1/3 c water
1/3 c vegetable oil
3 eggs
1 can(s) 15oz. pure pumpkin puree
cream cheese frosting

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350'F Add all ingredients together into a bowl
  • 2. Mix all ingredients together until well incorporated.
  • 3. Place cupcake liners in muffin pan and scoop enough batter about a little more than half way to the top of the liner. I use a Ice Cream Scoop to do this it fills about the right amount.
  • 4. Bake cupcakes about 18-20 minutes until toothpick inserted into cupcake comes out clean. Let cupcakes cool in muffin pans before frosting.
  • 5. Place frosting in a sandwich or ziploc bag and snip the corner, swirl frosting on top of cupcakes.
  • 6. Decorate with candy pumpkins, candy corn, Halloween Peeps, pumpkin spice or caramel topping.
  • 7. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Most of all ENJOY!

Tips:

  • Use fresh pumpkin puree for the best flavor.
  • Be sure to drain the pumpkin puree well before using it. Excess moisture can make the cupcakes too wet.
  • Mix the dry ingredients together thoroughly before adding them to the wet ingredients. This will help to prevent lumps.
  • Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cupcakes tough.
  • Fill the cupcake liners only 2/3 full. Overfilling can cause the cupcakes to overflow in the oven.
  • Bake the cupcakes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Allow the cupcakes to cool completely before frosting them.

Conclusion:

These spiced pumpkin cupcakes are a delicious and easy-to-make fall treat. They are perfect for parties, potlucks, or just a cozy night at home. With their moist texture, pumpkin flavor, and sweet cream cheese frosting, these cupcakes are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
