Pumpkin Pecan Bites image

This recipe makes a lot, so I like sharing the bite-size treats at potlucks. To easily frost them, try putting the frosting in a pastry bag and piping it on top of the cupcakes. -Carol Beyerl, East Wenatchee, Washington

These bites were a bit dry. I think I would have liked them better if they were more moist.
