How to Make Cheesecake Filled Pumpkin Cupcakes
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with cupcake liners.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the pumpkin puree, vanilla extract, and spices.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- For the cheesecake filling: Beat cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla until smooth. Fold in whipped cream until combined.
- Fill each cupcake liner about halfway with the pumpkin batter.
- Spoon 1-2 tablespoons of cheesecake filling into the center of each cupcake.
- Top with the remaining pumpkin batter, ensuring the filling is mostly covered.
- Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cupcakes cool in the muffin tin for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cool, frost with your favorite cream cheese frosting (recipe not included). Enjoy!
