Cupcake Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and ready a standard muffin pan by lining it with cupcake liners.
- Whisk together the dry ingredients in a medium bowl: flour, espresso powder, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves.
- Mix the wet ingredients in a large bowl by combining pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and vegetable oil.
- Add in the eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition until the mixture is smooth.
- Gradually incorporate the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, stirring gently.
- Divide the batter among the muffin cups, filling each about ⅔ full. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Let them cool for 5-10 minutes in the pan before transferring them to a wire rack.
Whipped Cream Preparation
- Prepare the stabilized whipped cream by blooming gelatin in a small amount of water, melting it and allowing it to cool slightly.
- In a stand mixer, whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla until soft peaks form.
- Gradually drizzle in the gelatin while continuing to whip until stiff peaks form.
- Frost the cooled cupcakes generously with the stabilized whipped cream and sprinkle cinnamon or spices on top.
