Pumpkin Cupcakes with Cinnamon Cream Cheese frosting

One of the main things you need to know about me is that I LOVE to bake, especially at this time of year, so I usually find any excuse I can to bake.  My husband has a love/hate relationship with my love of baking!  He loves the results but wishes I wouldn't do it as often as he feels the need to be my 'official cake tester'!! 

As we all know there is nothing new under the sun, I found these cupcakes on a fabulous blog, mybakingaddiction, she was recommended them by a fan, who adapted them from Martha Stewart......so these are not my own by any means HOWEVER, they are fabulous and too good not to share!

I made them for our church Christmas party and was highly commended for them, so I am now paying it forward!

They are very simple to make, not very time consuming, and much easier to frost than I anticipated (I am terrible at frosting usually!) I found a great video on Bake It Pretty which really helped me.  I discovered the key is to be confident, and don't hesitate.....be determined and you can do it!
