Postively Perfect Pumpkin Cupcakes

[Guest guest]

Here's a low-cal, low-fat Halloween treat! Since " spice cake mix " was not in

MC's ingredients, I just linked it to " cake mix " which made the calories & fat

higher than the nutritional info provided with the recipe (124 cal and 3 g fat).

1 cup unsweetened apple juice

1/2 cup Egg Beaters® 99% egg substitute

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Spray two 12-cup non-stick muffin tins with

In a large mixing bowl, combine all cupcake ingredients listed above. Using

electric mixer, beat on low speed for 30 seconds, scraping sides with rubber

spatula. Increase to medium speed and beat for two minutes, scraping sides.

 

Fill muffin cups with equal amounts of batter. Bake for 20 minutes, or until a

toothpick inserted in center of muffin comes out clean. Let cool for 15 minutes;

remove cupcakes from muffin tins and let cool completely.

 

Meanwhile, put whipped topping in a medium bowl. Using a rubber spatula, gently

fold nutmeg into whipped topping. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use. When

cupcakes are completely cool, frost with chilled topping.
