Turkey Cupcakes

After you’ve gobbled down your turkey, enjoy one last turkey with these adorable cupcakes. Just ice cupcakes with chocolate frosting and add pretzels, candy corn, and M&Ms.

Pilgrim Hat Cupcakes

If you love Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, you have to make these vanilla cupcakes iced with buttercream and topped with pilgrim hats made from Reese’s and fudge cookies.

Pumpkin Cupcakes

Let’s be honest, the pumpkins are the only candy cane we like. So top spiced cupcakes with rich cream cheese frosting and pumpkin candy corn.

Chocolate Almond Acorn Cupcakes

These cupcakes practically scream fall and they’re made by topping chocolate cupcakes with almond buttercream and an acorn made with a vanilla wafer, an almond Hershey Kiss, and a chocolate chip.

Nutter Butter Turkey Cupcakes

These Nutter Butter cupcakes are almost too cute to eat. They start with chocolate or vanilla cupcakes, topped with an icing of your choice and Nutter Butters, Twizzlers, candy eyes, orange-coated sunflower seeds, and candy corn for the turkey face.

Don’t Overmix

Always follow the instructions of the recipe and remember not to overmix. If you overmix the batter your cupcakes will be tougher. If you undermix, on the other hand, your cupcakes will crumble and won’t grow as much as they should.

Fresh Ingredients

Fresh ingredients are key for perfect cupcakes. Right before you start baking, check the dates on the packages. The chances are, you’ve had some things stored for a while and their expiration date is long gone. Replace these ingredients with new ones and you’re ready to go.

Always Measure the Ingredients

Recipes exist for a reason, which means you should always follow the measurements given. If you want the perfect cupcakes, this means you also need the perfect proportions. The same thing applies when you measure the portions at the end before baking the cupcakes.

Follow the Temperature

There are ingredients that should be used at room temperature, so don’t forget to do exactly that. Even if your butter was in the fridge, wait for it to reach room temperature, then start baking.
