Pumpkin Pie Cupcakes: Moist pumpkin cupcakes, topped with sweetened whipped cream.
Thanksgiving means 3 things to me:
1. Spending time with family
2. Watching football (Gooooo Cowboys!!)
3. Pumpkin Pie
Grandma always baked her pies the day before Thanksgiving. It was always torture smelling the spicy pumpkin and sweet apples for an entire day before indulging.
