Ingredients 

Cupcakes

  • 1 ½ cups All-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon Baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon Baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon Ground ginger
  • ¼ teaspoon Ground nutmeg
  • ¼ teaspoon Ground cloves
  • ½ cup Unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 cup Granulated sugar
  • 2 Large eggs
  • 1 cup Pumpkin puree
  • ¼ cup Whole milk

Frosting

  • ½ cup Unsalted butter, softened
  • 8 oz Cream cheese, softened
  • 4 cups Powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon

Instructions 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves.
  3. In a large bowl, beat the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  4. Mix in the pumpkin puree. Add the dry ingredients in three additions, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  5. Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake liners, filling each about two-thirds full. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  6. For the frosting, beat the butter and cream cheese together until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar, one cup at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in the vanilla extract and cinnamon until combined.
  7. Frost the cooled cupcakes with the cream cheese frosting. Enjoy!
