Pumpkin Cupcakes with Cake Mix

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 375°F and place liners in a cupcake pan.
2. Place all the cupcake ingredients in a large mixing bowl or stand mixer and beat 2-3 minutes, until well mixed.
3. Fill each cupcake liner about 2/3 full with batter.
4. Reduce temperature to 350°F and bake cupcakes for 18-20 minutes, until a toothpick in the center comes out clean. Remove from the oven and allow to cool for few minutes before transferring to a cooling rack.
5. Prepare frosting by combining heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and pudding mix. Whip until it is thick and fluffy, but don't over mix.
6. Once cupcakes are completely cool, pipe frosting onto cupcakes and garnish with sprinkles or pumpkin pie spice.
