Pumpkin Cupcakes with Maple Cinnamon Cream Cheese Frosting

These Pumpkin Cupcakes with Maple Cinnamon Cream Cheese Frosting are an easy fall dessert.  I have become a little obsessed with cream cheese frosting lately.  The rich flavor of the cream cheese mixed with the maple and cinnamon in this frosting is just divine!

I was really excited when OXO contacted me and asked if I wanted to participate in their Baking a Difference Campaign . Baking and making a difference–I am all in! OXO is donating *$100 for this post that I am sharing with all of you to Cookies for Kids’ Cancer. I love being able to help a good cause and share a delicious recipe (and eat a few of these along the way). Be on the lookout for OXO tools  at your local store displaying the below tag on them to help support this wonderful cause.

One of the OXO tools that they sent me is a Cupcake Corer.  When I saw this I knew it would be fun to use and boy was I right. You take out the center of the cupcake and can fill it with your favorite filling or in my case MORE FROSTING! Gotta love that!

*In 2013, OXO will donate up to $100,000 to Cookies for Kids’ Cancer through specially marked baking tools, bake sale matches and other fundraising efforts. Cookies for Kids’ Cancer is a recognized 501c(3) public charity duly incorporated under the laws of the state of New Jersey. Your donations are tax deductible to the fullest extent allowable by law. 100% of proceeds raised by Cookies for Kids’ Cancer fund pediatric cancer research.

During the month of September, OXO will donate $100 to C4KC for each blog post dedicated to this campaign. I received samples of specially-marked products as part of the campaign, but received no other compensation for this post. All opinions are my own and simply reflect my desire to support a worthy cause!

Disclosure: I have not been compensated for this post. OXO sent me baking tools to use in making these cupcakes and they are mine to keep. As always all opinions are 100% my own. 

Have a great day!
