Ingredients
  • 4 cups cake flour
  • 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons ground cinnamon
  • 2 1/4 teaspoons ground ginger
  • 1 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 2 cups canned pumpkin purée
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 2 sticks (8 ounces) unsalted butter, at room temperature
  • 2 cups packed light brown sugar
  • 4 large eggs, at room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • ----
  • BUTTERMILK ICING:
  • -----
  • 1 c. firmly packed brown sugar
  • 1/2 tsp. soda
  • 1/4 c. butter
  • 1 tbsp. corn syrup
  • 1/2 c. buttermilk
  • 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
  • Combine all ingredients except vanilla in saucepan. Cook about 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat; add vanilla and beat well.

Directions
  1. Heat the oven to 350°F and arrange the rack in the middle.
  2. Line muffin pans with cupcake liners.
  3. Sift together dry ingredients in a bowl and set aside.
  4. Whisk together pumpkin and milk in a separate bowl and set aside. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat butter and sugar on high speed until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes.
  5. Add eggs one at a time, beating and then scraping the bowl down after each addition.
  6. Add vanilla and beat until smooth. Add dry ingredients in three batches, alternating with pumpkin-milk mixture, mixing on low speed, and scraping the bowl down between additions.
  7. When all ingredients have been added, mix batter 30 seconds on medium-high speed until uniformly combined.
  8. Fill the cupcake liners 3/4 full with batter and bake until a tester inserted in cupcake centers comes out clean, about 18 to 20 minutes.
  9. Remove cupcakes from the oven and allow to cool 5 minutes before removing from the pans.
  10. Let cool completely on a rack, decorate with icing, and serve.
  11. That's it! Enjoy

Ohhhhhhhhhh... and I've been losing weight. You know what happens when temptation comes knocking at your door ~ you eat all the darn cupcakes LOL This recipe looks awesome and I know if I bake these beauties, there will be many neighbours knocking at my door ;) High "5"


Oops I didn't like this one..I don't think SassySue will either...sorry!


These sound amazing. Great post my friend and a high 5.


Snomama- What did you not like? Did the recipe not come out right? Darn you are fast at baking girl! Directions seem to be all there. Flavor profile goes together. Why don't you give constructive criticism of why the recipe doesn't work besides I don't like it and my friend won't either? Your profile reads that you are a master chef you would be in a great position to give us a hand on improving. Also, put some recipes up for us to try and rate. I promise I don't lowball nor give a low rate without real constructive criticism and actually trying the recipe. :)


JM... Smashing recipe. love pumpkin, so good for you and so yummy.

On the side bar:
Thanks jencathen. I agree entirely! I have now seen Snomama lowballing a number of Mystic's recipes! Since she does not seem to do this to others on the site..... It appears that she has for some reason singled out JM. It never ceases to amaze me that a person who strongly believes in God and that others are brought into your life for a reason, would purposely display such mean and vindictive actions.
As I mentioned when I first encountered Snomama on the Chile Pepper Chili Sauce Hot Chops...I have not met snomama yet... perhaps she is not aware of the protocol and someone could enlighten her on "acts of kindness" or as my mama used to say "common courtesies".
Perhaps one of her designated friends that have received nice comments from her could explain.....


Wonderful recipe


Oh yeah, that look excellent - and it's definitley pumpkin time of year. I will try to make a batch of these soon...I can smell them already!


Oh Joymarie, what a wonderful recipe. I have pumpkin muffins in the oven right now. I can't wait to try this recipe; I KNOW it will be just delish! As for the low scoring, how terribly sad some people feel they have to act this way.
Have a blessed evening!


JM ans everyone have a wonderful & blessed
day..OHHH JM good for all with the pumpkin AND
buttermilk..you know mine is a 55555!!
