FOR THE MUFFINS:
1 box Spice Cake Mix (18 Ounce Box)
1 can Pureed Pumpkin (15 Oz)
1 box Instant Vanilla Pudding Mix, 3.5 Oz
1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
1/2 cups Light Brown Sugar (plus Some To Sprinkle On Top)
1 Tablespoon Sour Cream
2 whole Eggs
1/2 cups Vegetable Oil
1/2 teaspoons Ground Cinnamon
1/4 teaspoons Ground Cloves
1/4 teaspoons Ground Nutmeg
1/4 teaspoons Ground Ginger
_____
FOR THE TOPPING (optional):
1 stick Butter, Room Temperature
1 cup Flour
1 cup Brown Sugar

1
Line a standard cupcake pan with paper liners. Preheat oven to 350F degrees.
2
In a stand mixer (or using a handheld electric mixer), mix together cake mix, pumpkin puree, pudding mix and vanilla until thoroughly combined. Then add brown sugar, sour cream, eggs, oil and spices. Mix until combined.
3
Using a 1/4 cup ice cream scoop, fill each cupcake about 2/3 full. Leave some room for expansion! Sprinkle the tops with a little brown sugar.
4
Bake for 30 minutes.
5
Optional Streusal Topping: I highly recommend this topping. It really adds something special to these muffins. Instead of sprinkling brown sugar on top, just combine 1 stick (room temperature) butter, 1 cup flour, 1 cup brown sugar. Using a pastry cutter of fork, cut the butter into the brown sugar and flour until well combined. Sprinkle some of the topping on each muffin & bake as directed.
6
Cook's note: For a little variety, add some chopped Granny Smith apples for a pumpkin apple muffin. Also, try making these as mini muffins. Kids go crazy over them!
