Very tasty!! But the texture was more like a muffin not a fluffy cupcake. I also put in extra spices as was suggested in another review, and was quite happy with the flavour. I made a white chocolate cream cheese icing and added caramel to it..........very nice I will keep this recipe but use it as a muffin recipe not a cupcake recipe.

    I needed to use up some pumpkin puree that I had prepared and froze last fall. Also needed to use up some buttermilk. Didn't have any pumpkin pie spice, but found a substitute recipe on line. I froze them and have been enjoying them in the morning for breakfast. I didn't frost them, so they are really just like muffins.

    Worked out really well, next time I will put two teaspoons spice into them. Light fluffy cupcake yet like a muffin texture top, perfect for holding. I did put a little dab of icing on them, but I thought they were better without. Kid liked them with frosting and sprinkles. I got 21 cupcakes.
