Long story short, I got put in charge of dessert (surprise, surprise... :) ) Since its been fall for a while now, I figured its time to start breaking out the pumpkin baked goods, Casual Cupcake style. :)

Pumpkin Spice Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting
Bake Time: 16 - 19 min / batch
Oven Temp: 350°
Total Time: 1.5 Hours
Ingredients
- 1 Betty Crocker Yellow Cake Mix
- 1 Can of pumpkin. (NOT pumpkin pie mix)
- 1.5 t Pumpkin Pie Spice
- 4 Eggs
- 1/2 c water
- 1/3 c oil
- 1 c Candied Pecans
- 2 cans Betty Crocker Cream Cheese Frosting
- Liners & Pastry bag (if desired)
Preheat the oven to 350°. Mix the eggs, water, oil and pumpkin until well blended. Add pumpkin pie spice & cake mix. Blend until well combined. Mix in pecans. Fill cupcake liners 2/3 full, and bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
While your cupcakes are baking (and your house is smelling F-A-L-L-TASTIC, ) scoop your frosting into a bowl. Sprinkle pumpkin pie spice in, and combine. I don't have an exact measurement, just do it until it looks (and tastes) good!
Once the cupcakes are baked & cooled, frost them and sample one right away! (I recommend a glass of milk....) Enjoy!
Sorry I have been a very undilligent blogger... Somehow full time school, full time job, and a weekend job are eating up my time. I will be better. :)
