Pumpkin Cupcakes With Cream Cheese Frosting (Cake Mix Recipe) image

This uses a box cake mix for the base of this recipe. Since box cake mixes require different things, the ingredient list here does not include whatever ingredients that the cake mix itself might call for (i.e. eggs, etc.). Time listed does not include cooling time.

16 ounces bars cream cheese, at room temperature
