directions
- Now the recipe I got did not give instructions so I tried to remember how oil batters work best. The way I did it came out great.
- Mix all dry ingredients in medium bowl.
- In large bowl add eggs and oil and beat with mixer.
- Add pumpkin. Also one can equals 15 oz. and that is all I used.
- Slowly add flour mix, then water.
- Pour into paper cup lined muffin tin half way, do not overfill.
- Add a tablespoon of topping mixture on top and sprinkle chips on top.
- Bake at 350 degrees, 25-30 minutes. Mine were done in 23.
- This makes a lot of cupcakes. I recommend you double the topping recipe and be very generous with it, adding even more than a tablespoon. I found myself short with single recipe amount despite not adding more than called for. This is a very sturdy and forgiving batter. I only had one tin so batter sat for a long time. I had to leave house unexpectedly. I put batter in fridge for 1/2 hour and still remaining cupcakes came out of oven fabulous.

These are incredibly good! I used goat's cream cheese and made the batter gluten free using gluten free all purpose flour mix, and DH and I were raving. As I didn't want so many cupcakes, I halved the recipe except for the topping, and I'd really suggest to double the topping if you make the whole amount of cupcakes. I will definitely make these again, they are utterly yummy. Thanks for sharing!<br/>Made for PAC Fall 2012
