Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 cup + 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp nutmeg
  • pinch salt

For the Frosting

  • 2 cups of heavy cream
  • 6 tbsp sugar
  • 3 tbsp brewed pumpkin spice coffee

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Line cupcake pan with cupcake liners. 
  • Combine the sugar, oil, pumpkin and eggs in a large mixing bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, nutmeg, and salt. Add flour mixture to the wet mixture and mix on high speed for about 5 minutes until batter is smooth and no clumps of flour remain.
  • Spoon batter in each cupcake liner until about 2/3 full. Bake in preheated oven for approximately 15 minutes or until tops are firm and a toothpick inserted on the side comes out clean.
  • While the cupcakes are cooling, make the frosting. Pour heavy cream, brewed coffee and sugar into mixing bowl. Mix on high until peaks form. If frosting is not sweet enough, add a little more sugar and mix again. After cupcakes have completely cooled, pipe frosting.
