How To Make anita's perfect pumpkin cupcakes for dummies

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350° F. Line muffin pan with 24 paper liners or spray with nonstick cooking spray. Also prepare an 8x8" pan with cooking spray.

Step 2

Combine all ingredients except frosting and beat until smooth. Scoop about 1/3 cup batter into each muffin cup.
Step 3

Bake for 20 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean when inserted in the cupcakes.
Step 4

Allow to cool before frosting. Using a pastry bag to frost cupcakes is the easiest.
