Como fazer Sweet Potato Pecan Cupcakes With Cream Cheese Frosting

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Place 1 cup pecan halves in a single layer on a baking sheet.
  2. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until toasted, stirring halfway through.
  3. Cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) softened butter and 1 ½ cups granulated sugar using an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
  4. Add 4 large eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 ½ cups mashed sweet potato, ¼ cup orange juice, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  6. In another bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg, and ½ teaspoon salt.
  7. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the sweet potato mixture, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  8. Gently fold in the toasted pecans.
  9. Line a muffin tin with paper liners. Fill each liner about two-thirds full.
  10. Bake for 28-30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  11. Let cool in the muffin tin for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  12. While cupcakes cool, prepare the cream cheese frosting (see below).
  13. Once cupcakes are completely cool, frost generously and garnish as desired.
  14. **Cream Cheese Frosting:** Beat ½ cup (1 stick) softened butter with 8 oz cream cheese (softened) until smooth. Gradually add 3 cups powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, beating until light and fluffy.
