So delicious! Thank you! I'm a Peace Corps Volunteer serving in Morocco, so I had to adapt the recipe slightly, but it was **delicious**. I wrote about it here: http://innocentablogged.blogspot.com/2009/10/10109-recipe-pumpkin-spice-muffins.html Thanks again!

very easy to put together, makes the whole house smell great. iced with brown sugar-cream cheese icing and topped with pumpkin seeds and caramel sauce. i used about half brown sugar as i ran out of white and it gave it a caramelly sweetness and a moistness that is fantastic! will definately make these again but perhaps with splenda for more day-to-day use

I could hardly wait for these to come out of the oven. What an incredible smell, and the taste was even better. Soft, tender, spiced just right and umm, umm good. My husband and I agree that these are some of the best pumpkin muffins we have ever had. Thanks Nurse Di.

Delicious, moist, and really smooth flavor. Only made one small addition... pecans. I took them to work and they were a hit! This was a great way to use the fresh pumpkin left over from Halloween.
