      Hi Maria! I’m so glad to hear you’re excited to try these muffins! ❤️ The frosting on top is classic cream cheese frosting – it’s smooth, creamy, and complements the pumpkin flavors beautifully. Here’s a quick recipe if you’d like to make it:

      • 4 oz cream cheese, softened
      • 2 tbsp unsalted butter, softened
      • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
      • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

      Just beat everything together until smooth, and it’s ready to go. Hope you enjoy the muffins as much as I do! 😊
