Our office Thanksgiving luncheon is coming up in a couple of weeks. I have been trying to decide what to bring and I remembered saving this link. I decided I needed to test the recipe (naturally) before taking it to share with co-workers. Below are pictures and quick descriptions of my process.
I have no intention of giving you the step by step instructions, but I am happy to supply you with the internet link to find these items.

The beginning....
I rolled out refrigerated pie crust and used the rim of a small glass to cut the dough. Then placed these pieces in each mini cupcake tin. Each mini pie was filled 3/4 full with the pumpkin pie filling (mixed according to can).
Baked according to directions. While those were baking, I whipped up the homemade cupcake batter, which is much easier than I thought and absolutely amazingly delicious.
While the mini pies were cooling, I placed one heaping tablespoon in the bottom of each regular sized cupcake tin. Once cooled, a mini pie was placed in each tin, on top of the cupcake batter. Then I scooped another heaping tablespoon on top of each mini pie, ensuring the top and sides were covered by the batter.
While the cupcakes were baking I prepared the icing according to the directions. I will say...finding cinnamon chips (which are used in the icing) was not easy, so you may want to track those down first, before you attempt to buy everything else.

Again, sharing recipes is really not my thing, but these cupcakes are by far the most delcious cupcakes I have ever tasted. The perfect combinination of cupcake, the little bit of pumpkin pie, and a cinnamon butter cream icing will seriously shock your mouth...in a good way! Give it a try, they aren't that hard to make and are completely worth it!
Brandon is not a huge pumpkin pie fan, but these cupcakes only have a bites worth and he LOVES them! My husband is a very happy man today!!! Thank you bakeitinacake.com for this amazing recipe!
