This is a humdinger of a smashup recipe! Pumpkin pie INSIDE a cinnamon cupcake. O. M. G. Soooo good! Yes, it is a time intensive recipe. You’re basically having to make two different recipes, and then combine them to make one. It’s twice the work for half the product, but these are made for their “shock” value. How awesome would it be to surprise your friends and family with what looks like a normal, everyday cupcake, and then, BAM, they bite into it, and PUMPKIN PIE!
What I like about this recipe is that you can make the pies ahead of time, and freeze them until you need them for the cupcakes. Just make sure to keep them in a sealed container in the freezer and bring them out to thaw prior to using them.
