Instructions

For the Cupcakes:

  1. Preheat oven to 350ºF. Line 12 muffin tins with cupcake liners.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, baking soda, salt, ginger, and nutmeg. In another bowl, whisk together the eggs, pumpkin, granulated sugar, brown sugar and vegetable oil.
  3. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir just until combined. Divide the mixture evenly between the 12 prepared cups.
  4. Bake for 20-15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  5. Cool completely on a cooling rack.

For the frosting:

  1. Cream together the cream cheese and butter until light and fluffy. Gradually add in the powdered sugar until you reach your desired consistency and sweetness. Pipe onto the cooled cupcakes.

Notes

  • This makes enough cream cheese frosting to generously frost each cupcake. If you don't like a lot of frosting, you can easily halve the frosting recipe.
