Hi again, I made these cupcakes this past weekend and they turned out very good! I liked the densness too them. One thing, there is nothing mentioned about mixing the eggs into the batter in your directions, so I threw them in there after the pumpkin puree was mixed in. I’m glad I didn’t forget about them! You may want to add that to the directions.

Julie, these are so fantastic, I am making them again this weekend for a roadtrip with my kids and friends. Fingers crossed that they survive the car ride!

Thanks, Patti! It’s fun baking with them.

Maris, the second photo of the cupcakes was the most unusual of backgrounds — it’s actually just my black stove with the white plastic base of my cake transporter. That lens I was telling you about makes a huge difference — since it focuses so succinctly, the background gets a wonderful blur.

Thanks for the question, Stacie! Unless otherwise noted, the recipes on this site are mine. In this case, I referenced several cakes that I have made in the past as well as family recipes to get the right proportions for the dry ingredients and then adjusted the spices and other ingredients to get the right flavor and consistency in the batter.

Oh, just the recipe I’m looking for, dense and yummy. Do you have a source for this recipe or did you take it from somewhere and make it your own? Thanks!

Love pumpkin, love cupcakes. How can you go wrong?

I love your second photo – what background did you use?

I just love the sound of a pumpkin flavoured cake that is moist and dense. Delicious!

Mangochild, thank you!! I hope your lucky family member enjoys them.

Angel, this is awesome. But be sure to give some away — otherwise it can be too tempting (I gave away 2/3 of the batch).

Jessica, the fluff gives the frosting a lovely light and fluffy texture.

I am a true sucker for cream cheese frosting. I’m not even a big frosting person, usually preferring non-frosted cakes, but cream cheese frosting…ahhh…and I haven’t yet tried one with marshmallow fluff yet.
