A timeless family classic that is delicious all year round!
48
2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon cloves
1/2 teaspoon ginger
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
4 eggs
1 cup oil
2 cups pumpkin
2 cups sugar
Icing:
1/2 cup butter
2 cups powdered sugar
8 oz. cream cheese
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon cloves
1/2 teaspoon ginger
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
4 eggs
1 cup oil
2 cups pumpkin
2 cups sugar
Icing:
1/2 cup butter
2 cups powdered sugar
8 oz. cream cheese
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. In a bowl, mix together the flour baking powder, baking soda and spices. Set aside.
2. Using a mixer, thoroughly mix the eggs, oil, pumpkin and sugar.
3. In three additions, mix together the wet and dry ingredients.
4. Line muffin tins with liners and fill 3/4 full with the batter.
5. Bake for 20 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Allow to cool completely before frosting. I suggest placing them in the freezer to make the frosting process easier.
6. Before making your frosting, allow the cream cheese and butter sit on the counter to soften.
7. Beat the cream cheese in a mixer until smooth. Add the butter. After completely combined, add the powdered sugar. The mixture will seem stiff at first, but will mix together nicely into a thick frosting.
8. Frost your cakes and enjoy!
*If you would prefer, you can pour the batter into a large jelly roll pan instead of muffin tines. Bake for 30 minutes.
