This recipe was FANTASTIC!! My husband is the pickest when it comes to pumpkin recipes. I have tried several and none ever worked out and almost gave up, but I decided to try this one out and found it to be PERFECT!! Even better on the second DAY... my hubby says. Thanks for the recipe^^!!!!

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.

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.

This was a big hit for a little healthier cupcake to take to school for my son's birthday. Delicious!

Wish I had seen another user's note about increasing spice to 2 tsp.; that might have cured the palid pumpkin flavor I got. They definitely did improve the next day, however — not what I expect from cupcakes, but true. We liked them with icing, but happily left a few without for a homemade morning snack at kindergarten!

PERFECT. Moist, yummy, just perfect. I did use Duncan Heinz frosting, tho. Made in honor of Chef-I-Am.

Definately one of the best cupcake recipes I've ever had. Bakery quality in my opinion. Made these yesterday and they're gone already so I'm about to make a second batch. I can't decide if I like them with or without the icing. They really don't NEED it. I may try other icings on them instead at some point. One friend said he'd like them better with a buttercream. No matter what you do though the cupcakes themselves are perfection. Thanks!

Delicious! 12 perfect cupcakes each of which rose beautifully so that the finished dozen were so pretty. Thus far, we haven't even tried them with frosting--quite good just as cupcakes. Tender, a lovely aroma, great color. You've done it again, Calee!

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.
