Pumpkin Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting

Langkah-langkah

1. Preheat oven to 350˚F. Line a 24-count muffin pan with 24 cupcake liners.

2. In a medium mixing bowl, combine dry ingredients: 2 cups flour, 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar, 2 tsp baking powder, 1 tsp baking soda, 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon, 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice, and 1/2 tsp salt.

3. In a second medium mixing bowl, combine wet ingredients: 15 oz pumpkin puree, 1 cup oil, 3 large eggs. Whisk until well combined and all oil is fully blended in and no longer visible.

4. Combine wet and dry ingredients and whisk until smooth. Divide evenly between 24 liners, filling each 2/3 full. Bake at 350˚F for 20-22 min or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cupcakes rest in pan for 10 min then transfer to wire rack and cool to room temperature before frosting.

5. Combine all frosting in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with whisk attachment. Beat on medium/low speed until powdered sugar is incorporated. Scrape down the bowl with a spatula and beat on high speed for 4 min or until fluffy, scraping down the bowl as needed. Transfer to a large pastry bag fitted with a large open star tip (Wilton 1M) and pipe over cupcakes. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
