  • - Hey everyone, it's Natasha of NatashasKitchen.com

  • and these are some crowd pleasing pumpkin cupcakes.

  • They're moist and melt in your mouth soft.

  • Both the cupcakes and the frosting are easy, easy.

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

  • In the first mixing bowl combine your dry ingredients:

  • Two cups of flour, one and a half cups of sugar,

  • two teaspoons of baking powder,

  • a teaspoon of baking soda and two teaspoons of cinnamon.

  • Whisk those together and set it aside.

  • In the second large mixing bowl

  • combine your wet ingredients:

  • That's one can, or 15 ounces of pumpkin puree,

  • one cup of olive oil and three large eggs.

  • Whisks that together until the oil is fully blended in

  • and no longer visible.

  • Now combine your dry ingredients with your wet ingredients

  • and whisk until completely smooth.

  • (upbeat music)

  • That looks perfect and we're ready to fill our cupcake pans.

  • This recipe makes 24 cupcakes.

  • Perfect for parties.

  • So place 24 cupcake liners into your cupcake pans.

  • I find it's easiest to divide the batter

  • using a trigger released ice cream scoop.

  • And it's exactly one level scoop for each cupcake.

  • You should be filling them about two thirds full

  • and using all of your batter.

  • (upbeat music)

  • Now bake all of them at the same time on the center rack

  • of the oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 20 to 22 minutes

  • or until a toothpick inserted into the center

  • comes out clean.

  • Let them cool in the pans for about 10 minutes

  • then transfer to a wire rack

  • and let them cool completely before frosting.

  • Now to make the cream cheese frosting

  • you literally put everything into the mixer at once

  • and it's go time.

  • Combine 12 oz of softened cream cheese,

  • three fourth cup of softened unsalted butter,

  • two cups of powdered sugar

  • and a tablespoon of real vanilla extract.

  • (upbeat music)

  • Now using the whisk attachment on medium low speed

  • beat the mixture until the powdered sugar is incorporated.

  • (upbeat music)

  • Then set the mixture to high speed

  • and beat another four minutes,

  • scraping down the bowl as needed.

  • When it's done it'll be whipped, fluffy and white in color.

  • Transfer the frosting to a large pastry bag

  • fitted with a large open star tip.

  • (upbeat music)

  • Prime the bag then pipe generously onto each cupcake.

  • (upbeat music)

  • Whoo, perfect.

  • (laughs)

  • Alright and of course.

  • Mmm.

  • That almost tastes like a marshmallow cream,

  • it is so good.

  • And that frosting couldn't be easier.

  • So finally, let's decorate these

  • and make them super cute for Fall.

  • And you can use these little pumpkin candies,

  • these taste like candy corn.

  • So yummy. (laughs)

  • Little bit addicting.

  • So you can top them with these.

  • Cute, very festive.

  • Get a few of these on there.

  • And then my favorite.

  • Sprinkles. (laughs)

  • The more the merrier.

  • And sprinkles make everything...

  • If I can open this.

  • There we go.

  • Irresistible for grown ups and kids.

  • So pretty.

  • So fun!

  • And these are adorable.

  • And I'm gonna do a taste test right now.

  • (laughs)

  • Now you can refrigerate these over night.

  • They are perfect until the next day.

  • You don't even have to soften them,

  • they're just the perfect texture afterwards.

  • Yum, yum, yum.

  • Here we go.

  • So cute. (laughs)

  • Hmm.

  • (laughs)

  • Mmm.

  • Mmm.

  • Mmm.

  • Yes. (laughs)

  • They're so soft and moist.

  • Ah, they are melt in your mouth delicious.

  • And the combination of the frosting

  • and the cupcake is perfect.

  • They're not too sweet.

  • It's almost like the sweetness of a muffin

  • but the texture of a cupcake.

  • These are so good.

  • And they're so easy.

  • I mean you've got dry ingredients and wet ingredients,

  • mix 'em together and bam.

  • And the frosting's even easier.

  • These have been a family favorite for a long time.

  • Make this once and you'll make it again and again.

  • They're that good.

  • My husband tells me I've been eating cupcakes all wrong

  • all these years.

  • So now, the proper way to eat a cupcake.

  • Remove it from the shell,

  • Remove the bottom half of the cake.

  • Like so.

  • You can slice it with a knife for a cleaner look.

  • And then

  • create a delicate

  • (laughs) and beautiful sandwich.

  • This is a cupcake sandwich now.

  • And I guess this also prevents

  • the frosting on the nose effect.

  • Mmm. (laughs)

  • Mmm.

  • Somehow it's even more excellent.

  • Amazing. (laughs)
