Pumpkin Spice Cupcakes



Since it's fall, I decided to make pumpkin spice cupcakes.

I first mixed flour, baking powder, baking soda, pumpkin pie spice, ground cinnamon, and salt in a large bowl. Then in another large bowl I mixed pumpkin, sugar, brown sugar, melted butter, vegetable oil, and large eggs. Then I gradually added the flour mixture to the other bowl.

Then I poured one third of the batter into the liners and with the rest I put chocolate chips in it. (My Dad wanted some without the chocolate chips.)  I put them in the oven to bake...

After they cooled, I let my brother Sami decorate them. Here are the ones with chocolate chips (both inside the cupcakes and on top of the cream cheese frosting)...

I had two of them right away. They were very yummy! My whole family enjoyed them...My dad had two without the chocolate chips.

The recipe is found in Paula Deen’s magazine, an special issue called "Apple Desserts". Look for it on page 48.
