For my first try with it, I made pumpkin cupcakes. My parents got me this sweet cupcake recipe book for Christmas (does my family want me to make cupcakes for them? Are they hinting something here. . ;)) This recipe was SO good!
You'll need:
1 1/2 cups sugar
3/4 cups softened butter
3 eggs
1 can (15 ounces) solid-pack pumpkin
1 cup buttermilk
3 cups flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon ground ginger
1. Beat sugar and butter in a large bowl with electric mixer until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each.
2. Combine pumpkin and buttermilk in a bowl, mix well. Combine flour and the rest of the dry ingredients in a separate bowl. Alternate adding the pumpkin mixture and flour mixture to the butter mixture (make sense??), beating well after each addition.
3. If you sadly, don't have a babycake maker, preheat your oven to 350 degrees and bake cupcakes for 20-22 minutes. It'll make 24 cupcakes. If you use a babycake maker, bake for 6 minutes, and it'll make about 40.
Maple Frosting:
Beat 3/4 cup softened butter in large bowl until fluffy. Add 3 tablespoons maple syrup and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla, beat until well blended. Gradually add 3 1/2 cups powdered sugar, beating until fluffy. Add 1 or 2 tablespoons of milk if needed for the right consistency. Makes 2 1/2 cups.
