Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 12-cup muffin pan with cupcake liners.
- Make the cupcakes: In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and salt to combine. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, whisk the oil and brown sugar until well combined. Add the egg and vanilla and whisk until well combined. Add half of the flour mixture and mix to combine. Add the buttermilk and mix to combine. Add the remaining flour and mix to combine. Gently stir in the sweet potato puree.
- Divide the batter among the prepared muffin pan, filling each liner just over 3/4 full. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean or with just a few moist crumbs, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
- Make the frosting: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the cream cheese and butter until light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the confectioners' sugar and cinnamon and mix well to combine. Scrape the bowl well, then add the vanilla and salt and mix to combine.
- Spread the frosting on top of the cooled cupcakes. Dust with more cinnamon, if desired, then serve.
SWEET POTATO CUPCAKES WITH TOASTED MARSHMALLOW FROSTING
These spiced fall cupcakes are a riff on the classic Thanksgiving casserole. These days, I tend to like savory sweet potato dishes with the meal, but marshmallowy cupcakes make a terrific fall dessert! Store any leftover cupcakes in the refrigerator.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 12 muffin cups with cupcake liners.
- Beat butter and brown sugar with an electric mixer in a large bowl until light and fluffy. Add room-temperature eggs one at a time, allowing each egg to blend into the butter mixture before adding the next. Blend in vanilla extract and sweet potatoes.
- Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon salt, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves in a bowl. Add half the flour to the sweet potato mixture, stirring just until incorporated. Blend in the milk and the remaining flour mixture.
- Scoop batter into prepared cupcake pan and bake in preheated oven until tops spring back when touched lightly with a finger and a toothpick inserted in the center of a cupcake comes out clean, 18 to 22 minutes. Cool on rack.
- To make frosting, combine white sugar, cream of tartar, a pinch of salt, egg whites, and cold water in a heatproof mixing bowl. Set the mixing bowl over a pan of simmering water and beat with an electric mixer until the mixture is very hot to the touch and stiff peaks have formed, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove the bowl from the heat and beat 1 minute more. Add 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and marshmallow creme and beat until combined.
- To frost the cupcakes, fill a pastry bag fitted with a large plain tip with frosting; pipe mini marshmallow-shaped dots all over the cupcakes. Alternatively, use a knife and frost them generously with lots of swoops and swirls.
- Set oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
- Arrange 3 or 4 cupcakes on a baking sheet and place them in the oven under the broiler. Toast until the frosting has started to brown, about 90 seconds (check every 20 seconds and rearrange the baking sheet, if necessary). Repeat with the remaining cupcakes until all are toasted.
