Pumpkin Ginger Cupcakes Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 24 muffin cups, or line with paper muffin liners. Whisk together the flour, pudding mix, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ground ginger, allspice, cloves, and crystallized ginger in a bowl; set aside.
• Beat the butter, white sugar, and brown sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until light and fluffy. The mixture should be noticeably lighter in color. Add the eggs one at a time, allowing each egg to blend into the butter mixture before adding the next. Beat in the vanilla and pumpkin puree with the last egg. Stir in the flour mixture, mixing until just incorporated. Pour the batter into the prepared muffin cups.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden and the tops spring back when lightly pressed, about 20 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.

Steps:

• In large bowl, mix all ingredients except frosting until soft dough forms. Refrigerate 30 minutes.
• Heat oven to 350°F. Drop dough by heaping tablespoonfuls 2 inches apart on ungreased cookie sheets.
• Bake 8 to 11 minutes or until edges are golden brown. Cool 1 minute; remove from cookie sheets to cooling racks. Cool at least 5 minutes.
• Spoon frosting into resealable food-storage plastic bag. Cut about 1/4 inch off corner of bag. Squeeze bag to drizzle frosting over cookies. Let stand until set, about ## minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease 24 muffin cups, or line with paper muffin liners. Sift together the flour, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, clove, allspice, salt, baking powder, and baking soda; set aside.
• Beat 1/2 cup of butter, the white sugar, and brown sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until light and fluffy. The mixture should be noticeably lighter in color. Add the room-temperature eggs one at a time, allowing each egg to blend into the butter mixture before adding the next. Stir in the milk and pumpkin puree after the last egg. Stir in the flour mixture, mixing until just incorporated. Pour the batter into the prepared muffin cups.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden and the tops spring back when lightly pressed, about 25 minutes. Cool in the pans for 5 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
• While the cupcakes are cooling, make the frosting by beating the cream cheese and 1/4 butter with an electric mixer in a bowl until smooth. Beat in the confectioners' sugar a little at a time until incorporated. Add the vanilla extract and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon; beat until fluffy. Once the cupcakes are cool, frost with the cream cheese icing.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 24 muffin cups with foil liners.
• Crush graham crackers and 2 tablespoons ground ginger together in a resealable plastic bag; pour into a bowl. Add butter to graham cracker mixture and mix with a fork or pastry blender until blended.
• Beat cream cheese, white sugar, and brown sugar together in a large bowl until creamy; beat in pumpkin puree. Add cinnamon, 1 tablespoon ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and salt; add eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition.
• Press 1 tablespoon graham cracker mixture into the base of each prepared muffin cup, pressing mixture slightly up the sides of the liners. Fill each cup with cream cheese mixture.
• Bake in the preheated oven until tops are smooth and cupcakes jiggle slightly when moved, about 15 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool.
• Stir sour cream, confectioners' sugar, and vanilla extract together in a bowl until frosting is smooth. Top each cheesecake with the topping and sprinkle with cinnamon.

Steps:

• Finely chop 125g of the ginger.
• Beat sugar and 125g butter until smooth.
• Then beat in the eggs one by one.
• Stir in the pumpkin and chopped ginger, sift in the flour, baking powder and spices.

• Line the pockets of a deep muffin tray with muffin papers, then fill each one almost to the top.
• Bake at 190C (170 fan-assisted)/375F/gas mark 5 for 25 minutes, then set aside to cool.
• Once the cupcakes are cold, beat the icing sugar, cream cheese and remaining butter until smooth.
• Finely shred the remaining ginger and stir most of it in, along with just enough syrup to make it easily spreadable.
• Swirl a dollop of icing on each cupcake and decorate with a pinch of shredded ginger.
