The leaves are falling, so something with pumpkin spice sounds really nice alongside my mug of steaming hot tea. It is hard to decide between baking a cake or cupcakes but cupcakes are easy to share and I want to spread the love. This recipe yields very moist cake and who doesn’t appreciate a little cream cheese icing? If you want something with nuts and raisins, try my pumpkin muffin recipe.
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Line cupcake pan with paper liners; set aside. In a large bowl, whisk together sugar, oil, eggs, pumpkin puree, maple syrup and milk. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and allspice. Add the flour mixture to the egg mixture and whisk until smooth. Divide the batter evenly between the baking cups, filling each about two-thirds full. Bake until the tops spring back when lightly touched, 18 to 22 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool completely. In a medium bowl prepare the icing by mixing the cream cheese, butter and vanilla until just combined. Add the sugar and mix until smooth. Pipe or spread the icing over the cooled cupcakes. For fun, you can top with a couple of seasonal candy corns.pumpkin spice cupcakes
