Ingredients

Servings
  • 15.25 ounces vanilla cake mix (Duncan Hines or Pillsbury*)
  • 7 ounces cream cheese Philadelphia brand, 1/3 fat
  • 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin canned 100% pure
  • 3/4 cup pumpkin canned 100% pure
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar packed

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350F. Line two cupcake tins with 20 cupcake wrappers and spray the liners with oil.
  2. Combine cake mix and pumpkin spice in a large bowl.
  3. Add pumpkin puree and water, mix about 2 minutes.
  4. Fill cupcake liners 2/3 full and bake about 20 - 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  5. Meanwhile for the frosting, combine the cream cheese, pumpkin, vanilla, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice and brown sugar until smooth. Refrigerate until ready to pipe.
  6. Once the cupcakes cool, use a spatula to ice the cupcakes or pipe them which may might require making more frosting.

Notes

  • *Betty Crocker has reduced their cake mixes, so read the labels on your box. I switched this to Duncan Hines still carries 15.25 oz box and reduced the rest of the ingredients. Do not use Betty Crocker with these measurements, the box is smaller.
