Is the sugar supposed to be 2/4? Is is 1/2 c or 1/4 c? Thx!

You're only adding 1 cup of pumpkin, so I'm guessing it's 1/4 cup of sugar to sweeten it. I will be making this for a bake sale tomorrow and will let you know how it turns out!

I am making this right now and got to the sugar! I guess I will go with a 1/4 cup too!

Yup, I used 1/4 cup and it came out great. The cakes sold out and people started asking for the recipe!

Sounds good! What flavor icing did you use for this?

Fantastic recipe, thanks for sharing. I used a white cake mix (all I had) and I put another 1/4 c of pumpkin in, worked great. Made 2 dozen cupcakes. Everyone that tasted them LOVED them.

1 Box yellow Duncan Hines cake mix, I don't have this where I live, so what can I use instead

Sorry, is it canned pumkin like the pumkin pie filling?

Felishamoss-I think that you want regular packed pumpkin, not pie filling as that already has spices added. At least the ones at my store did.

Plain old canned pumpkin - I've never bought the pie filling but I assume it has sugar and spices added, and may not be the right consistency.

I added a dash of ginger and baked it in a bundt cake pan. I also glazed it with an orange sugar glaze. It's yummy
