I got this from a magazine several years ago. I make them each year during the autumn season. I find that I need to bake them a little longer than instructed, possibly due to our high altitude in Utah. I also use a little red/yellow food coloring in the frosting to give it an orange cast and decorate each with a few candy corns. Ingredients:
1 (16 ounce) package poundcake mix |
2 eggs |
3/4 cup light brown sugar |
1 cup cooked pumpkin or 1 cup canned pumpkin |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
2 teaspoons poppy seeds |
1/2 cup water |
1/2 cup softened butter or 1/2 cup margarine |
3 cups sifted powdered sugar |
1 teaspoon anise extract |
2 tablespoons milk |
Directions:
1. In a mixing bowl combine cake mix, eggs, sugar, pumpkin, water, baking soda, and poppy seeds. 2. Beat on medium speed for 3 minutes. 3. Pour batter into 18 paper-lined muffin cups. 4. Bake at 325 degrees for approximately 25-30 minutes or until golden. 5. Cool 10 minutes. 6. Remove from pan and place on wire rack until complete cool. 7. For frosting: Cream together all ingredients until smooth. |
