Spectacular cupcakes

Wow, where did November go?  I know that ours was spent getting an Eagle project finished and spending lots of time with family.  

I also planned a little Thank you party for my clients at the Salon.  I love and appreciate all of them!!

YUMMY!

These are the fabulous little cupcakes that were on the treat table.

And here is the recipe:

Better Than Pumpkin Pie Cake

1 Yellow cake mix                                        ½ tsp. cloves

2 eggs                                                          ½ tsp. nutmeg

¾ cup water                                                 ¼ tsp. baking soda

½ tsp. cinnamon                                          1 sm. Can pumpkin

Mix cake mix, eggs, water, spices and soda in a medium mixing bowl.  Add pumpkin and mix well.  Grease and flour a 9x13-inch cake pan.  Bake at 350* for 30-35 min.  Check to make sure cake is done in the middle.  Cool in pan.

Frosting:

 ½ pt. whipping cream                                  6 oz. Cool Whip

½  cup brown sugar

Whip cream and brown sugar until stiff.  Gently add cool whip.  Frost cake when completely cooled.  Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving, longer if possible.

Treat and gift table

Obviously I made them into cupcakes instead.  I used cream cheese frosting and topped them with mini chocolate chips.  I also offered them cranberry juice with ginger ale, or bottled water.  

Cute little tree at the salon

Now I can get on to the Christmas projects and house cleaning that have been so patiently waiting.

get your party on!
