Pumpkin Cupcakes With Kahlua Cream Cheese Frosting image

I bake these cupcakes every year for Halloween and they are always a hit. The delicious Kahlua cream cheese frosting is for adults only, so if you are serving children, simply leave out the Kahlua.

I'm allergic to nuts, so I'll have to omit the pecans from the frosting.

The frosting was a bit runny, but it still tasted great.

I had some trouble getting the cupcakes to rise properly. I think I might have overmixed the batter.

These cupcakes were a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference. They were still very moist and fluffy.
