Low-Fat Chocolate Cupcakes By Bri

I just found this great recipe for low-fat chocolate cupcakes by SkinnyTaste on pinterest. They use pumpkin in them and sugar-free pudding. I'm going to try them for dessert on Saturday for Marissa and Tim's Birthday party! (Although I will be making mini ones instead!)

The recipe is:
Ingredients:

• 18.25 oz Duncan Hines Dark Chocolate Fudge cake mix
• 1.4 oz sugar free, fat free, instant chocolate pudding
• 1 cup canned pumpkin (not pumpkin pie filling)
• 1 1/3 cups water

For the chocolate glaze:

• 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
• 1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1/2-1 tbsp 1% milk
• 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
• pinch of salt

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350°. Line a cupcake tin with cupcake liners.

Combine pumpkin puree and water in a large bowl; mix to combine. Add chocolate pudding mix and mix well.
Add chocolate cake mix and beat 2 minutes.
Fill cupcake liners 2/3 full and bake about 25 - 28 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Cool in pan on wire rack for 15 minutes.

For the glaze: combine all dry ingredients, add vanilla and 1/2 tbsp milk, adding more 1/4 tsp at a time if needed until smooth.


Add to a piping bag or use a zip lock bag and cut the corner off, drizzle onto cooled cupcakes.
