Quick and Easy Pumpkin Cupcakes

I know we have a similar recipe here on the blog, but I tried this one out for Dinner Group a couple months ago and these were one of my new favorite cupcakes. I found it here, one of my favorite foodie sites. Simple, easy, fast, and so good. I frosted them with a Cream Cheese frosting that was so good! But if you didn't want to frost them, you could easily add some mini chocolate chips to dress them up a little. If you're in a pinch, try them... they're no fail!
