Winter might be upon us but I'm still not ready to let go of fall! And I'm definitely not ready to let go of all things pumpkin spice! Like these moist and delicious Pumpkin Spice Cupcakes! The recipe originally started out as a cake, but with a few minor tweaks I created these portable treats and topped them with a rich and creamy Cinnamon Cream Cheese frosting that takes them over the top! These fall spiced treats are super easy to make and unfrosted can be frozen for up to 3-4 months! They will also make the perfect substitute for pumpkin pie this holiday season!
