Ingredients

Pumpkin Cupcakes

* Cream Cheese Frosting

Instructions

  1. * Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line 24 muffins and set aside. Mix all dry ingredients for the cupcakes together; set aside.
  2. * Cream 1/2 cup of butter, white sugar, and brown sugar in a large bowl until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time to the mix. Then, stir in the milk and pumpkin. Once combined, add the dry mix to the wet mixed until completely mixed.
  3. * Bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle of the cupcake comes out clean.
  4. * Leave the cupcakes in the muffin tin to cool for 5 minutes before moving to a cooling rack.
  5. * While your cupcakes are cooking, start on the frosting. Mix together the cream cheese, butter, and vanilla until combined, then add a cup of confectioner’s sugar at a time until the desired consistency. If the frosting is too thick, you can add a tablespoon of milk at a time to thin.
  6. * Once your cupcakes have completely cooled, frost each of them with cream cheese frosting.
