    I did not like the frosting on this cupcake. My Mother and I made these cupcakes and I have a huge sweet tooth. But the frosting was so so sweet. It was just gross. I did not like the maple in the frosting. I like everything.

    These are easy to make and are very moist and tasty. The pumpkin and the spices give it a great flavor and it remains cupcake like instead of "spice cake" like. I was pleasantly surprised how good they were. My mother-in-law "stole" the left over frosting because it was so good. This recipe will definitely be made again and again at my house!

    These cupcakes were already off the charts, but I altered the frosting recipe a bit and now they are so good I can't stand it! I browned the butter, let it set, and then mixed it in with the rest of the frosting ingredients. It added a nice rich flavor that went perfectly with the maple syrup. I have brought these cupcakes to several different events and they are ALWAYS a hit! Thank you, Neelys!

    These cupcakes are amazing! They are moist and flavorful. I sprinkled them with powdered sugar instead of frosting them, and they were a big hit with the family.

    Fantastic! my husband ranks this a 10! Everyone I share the cupcake with loves it. The toasted pecans are a must. I used maple extract rather than maple syrup. Easy and delicious! I love the Nealys, they are so fun and the recipe always works out! I was only able to make 11 cupcakes, which turned out to be the perfect number, they did not last 1 whole day in the kitchen.

    Theses were good! I did increase the spices just a little bit. It is a very thick batter...just make sure you fill up the correct number of cupcake spaces on the pan! Icing was a little runny at first - but as soon as I iced them I put them in the fridge to set and they were excellent. LOTS of compliments on this one!

    Last night, I baked these cupcakes in my dorm building's tiny kitchen for my best friend's birthday. I'm pretty modest when it comes to things I make, but...these were the absolute best cupcakes I've ever made, EVER! They were so deliciously flavorful and really moist, and all gone in about 10 minutes!
    I didn't have allspice so I just added a tiny bit more of nutmeg, cinnamon, and ginger. For the frosting, I added about a teaspoon more of maple syrup- it was actually better after being refrigerated for a few hours, and even better the next day.
    I also put some chocolate chips on top of a few cupcakes instead of pecans, and it all went together super well. SO DELICIOUS! And it didn't even take that long! I will definitely be making these again, and I recommend it for any Fall occasion!!
    Also- I ran out of cupcake liners for the last 2 so I just sprayed some cooking spray and they were still delicious!

    The flavors were there, but the cake itself was so dry and the frosting was runny! The recipe only made 10 tiny cakes and the "frosting" was almost like a glaze because it is so runny!

    I never can follow a recipe 100%, I added 3/4 c of pumpkin puree because I like a strong pumpkin flavor. In error I used almond extract instead of vanilla. I also used 2 tsp of pumpkin pie spice and 1/2 tsp of cinnamon in place of the other seasoning because I didn't have ginger. I think they are super yummy, but errored when I didn't increase the flower. The cupcakes fell in the center. I made cinnomon cream cheese frosting and filled in the voids!
