No more excuses! These Easy Peazy Pumpkin Cupcakes are fool proof, college student proof, husband proof, kid proof! You can do it and they will be delicious!
My favorite part about my job is making easy recipes that anyone can make, no matter their skill level. Now, all of my recipes are easy, but these ones are particularly simple but taste incredible! You’ll be the belle of the ball when you show up with these to your next party. And if you’re in a rush, these are great too! Sometimes we just need a few easy go-to recipes in our arsenal that will never let us down. And this is your pumpkin fix.
Cake mix pumpkin cake is always delicious, but paired with my 2 ingredient whipped cream frosting… well that’s just a dream come true! I started using this frosting about 5 years ago and I’ve been obsessed! I switch out the pudding mix for different flavors all the time and you can put in more whipped cream to make it less stiff. The best part is it’s easy to make. No fuss.
If you’re looking for a pumpkin pie spice that doesn’t break the bank, you can make your own or you can buy it from Trader Joe’s, their’s is great and cheap! Stock up this season!
Pumpkin Pie Spice:
3 Tbsp. ground cinnamon
2 tsp. ground ginger
2 tsp. ground nutmeg
1 ½ tsp. ground allspice
1 ½ tsp. ground cloves
I volunteered one cupcake as tribute and crumbled it up to make it the “sprinkles” on the frosting! I will give one piece of advice with the frosting, if you choose to use traditional colored sprinkles, wait to put them on until just before your party! The color will start to bleed out into the frosting after a while, so unless you want a tie-dye look, save the sprinkles for last! I played it safe and used the crumbled cake instead!

OMG! These look and sound AMAZING! Couple questions re: the frosting…are you using “whipping cream” from the carton, “whipped topping” or “whipped cream from can” for the frosting? I’m guessing the whipping cream from carton. Also, do you frost yours the night before; and if so, how do you store them — room temp or in fridge? Would like to make these for work, but would have to frost night before.
Thanks!!

Whipping cream from the carton! I try to just pipe them right before the event. So I would bake the cupcakes at night and let them cool and store them in a tupperware on the kitchen counter. Then whip up the frosting and decorate in the morning! But if you frost them the night before, I would probably seal them in tupperware and keep them in the fridge!

Hi: These cupcakes look so delicious. I have a question. When you say “pumpkin puree” so you mean just the canned pumpkin or should I specifically look for “puree” In my past experience, the puree is very liquidy, but the canned pumpkin is much more solidish. Please clarify for me if you wouldn’t mind. I don’t want to go to the trouble of making these and then having them not turn out.
