1 package spice cake mix (regular size)
1 can (15 ounces) solid-pack pumpkin
3 eggs
1/2 cup canola oil
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
36 pecan halves
CREAM CHEESE FROSTING:
1/2 cup butter, softened
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3-3/4 cups confectioners' sugar
2 to 3 tablespoons milk
Ground cinnamon

In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, pumpkin, eggs, oil, cinnamon, baking soda and cloves; beat on low speed for 30 seconds. Beat on medium for 2 minutes.
Fill paper-lined miniature muffin cups two-thirds full. Press a pecan piece into each. Bake at 350° for 17-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks to cool completely.
In a small bowl, cream the butter, cream cheese and vanilla until light and fluffy. Gradually add confectioners' sugar and mix well. Add enough milk to achieve spreading consistency. Frost cupcakes. Sprinkle with cinnamon

This recipe can be prepared in 2 dozen regular-size muffin cups. Bake for 22-26 minutes.
