Sugar N Spice Mini Gingerbread Muffins Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease two 24-cup mini muffin pans.
• Combine molasses, margarine, white sugar, brown sugar, egg, lemon zest, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, and cloves in a large bowl. Beat using an electric mixer at medium speed until well mixed. Add flour and sour cream; continue beating until well mixed.
• Spoon batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each 3/4 full.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean, 10 to 12 minutes. Let stand for 5 minutes before removing from the pans.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease 12 muffin cups.
• In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt and nutmeg. In a separate bowl, beat together oil, 3/4 cup sugar, egg and milk. Stir egg mixture into flour mixture, just until moistened. Spoon batter into prepared muffin cups.
• Bake in preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into a muffin comes out clean.
• While muffins are baking, mix together 3/4 cup white sugar and 1 teaspoon cinnamon. While muffins are still hot, dip tops in melted butter and then in cinnamon sugar mixture.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees (F). Spray/butter muffin tins.
• 2. Combine sugar, flour, soda, salt and spices in a bowl.
• 3. In a separate bowl mix the egg, molasses, milk, and butter.
• 4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry and stir until just blended.
• 5. Add to muffin tins** (about 3/4 full, these muffins don't rise too much, so you don't have to worry about them overflowing) and bake for 15 minutes. If making normal sized muffins, it'll be more like 20 minutes. Muffins are done when a toothpick comes out clean.
• 6. **If you don't have buttermilk (I almost never do), just add 1 tbsp. of white vinegar or lemon juice to a cup of regular milk and let sit out for about 10 minutes.**

Steps:

• For the spiced gingerbread cupcakes: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 24-cup mini muffin tin with cooking spray.
• Stir together the flour, pumpkin pie spice, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl.
• Whisk the melted butter, granulated sugar, molasses, sour cream and egg in a large bowl until smooth. Add the flour mixture and whisk just to combine. Divide the mixture among the muffin cups.
• Bake until puffed and a tester in the center of a cupcake comes out clean, 13 to 15 minutes. Cool in the tin for about 10 minutes, then use an offset spatula to ease them out and completely cool.
• For the lemon cream cheese frosting. Combine the cream cheese and butter in a medium bowl. Beat until smooth and fluffy, about 1 minute. Beat in the lemon zest and vanilla. Add the confectioners' sugar and mix until smooth, then beat until light and fluffy, about 1 minute.
• Split the cooled cupcakes in half crosswise. Spread or pipe a little filling on the cut side of each cupcake bottom. Top with the cupcake tops. Spread or pipe the remaining frosting on top of the cupcakes and decorate as desired.
