Today is National Pumpkin Day. Who knew, right? In honor of that noble squash, I present some of our favorite pumpkin recipes that can be made ahead and frozen. Yeah!
- Pumpkin Onion Rolls
- Pumpkin Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting

Stash pumpkin (or other squash) puree in the freezer for later baking. Details here.

Is it possible to make frosting without powdered sugar? I have a corn allergy and that knocks standard icing out. Ideas?
thanks!!

There are a few chocolate frostings that I’ve made with granulated sugar. I think if you search “one-minute frosting” you should find some variations of it.
