Make the Brown Butter Cream Cheese<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"\/><\/h3>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can make the brown butter cream cheese frosting as the sourdough pumpkin cupcakes cool.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To brown the butter, heat the butter in a small skillet or saucepan on medium heat and stir constantly for 4-5 minutes. At first, it will sizzle and foam with small bubbles, and then the milk solids will quickly start to brown with a caramely aroma.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Remove from the heat and pour the brown butter into a mixing bowl to cool before mixing in the cream cheese.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once cooled, add the softened cream cheese and vanilla and mix with a hand mixer or spatula until combined into a thick consistency. Then, add the powdered sugar and mix until you have a thick but spreadable cream cheese frosting.<\/p>\n<div style=\"border: 3px solid #000000;border-radius: 0%;background-color: #eaeaea\" class=\"ub-styled-box ub-bordered-box wp-block-ub-styled-box\" id=\"ub-styled-box-e48fe30b-51a5-4470-bd3a-aa6ac4143382\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"ub-styled-box-bordered-content-06d6f324-15a4-489f-a5af-ba490c9faaf4\"><strong>Note:<\/strong> To make a regular cream cheese frosting, simply skip browning the butter, and let it soften at room temperature with the cream cheese and mix together.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery aligncenter has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-3 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1800\" data-id=\"19869\" alt=\"Brown butter cream cheese frosting in a glass stand mixer bowl surrounded by unfrosted sourdough pumpkin cupcakes.\" class=\"wp-image-19869 perfmatters-lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/sourdoughbrandon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/brown-butter-cream-cheese-frosting-for-sourdough-pumpkin-cupcakes.jpg\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sourdoughbrandon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/brown-butter-cream-cheese-frosting-for-sourdough-pumpkin-cupcakes.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/sourdoughbrandon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/brown-butter-cream-cheese-frosting-for-sourdough-pumpkin-cupcakes-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/sourdoughbrandon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/brown-butter-cream-cheese-frosting-for-sourdough-pumpkin-cupcakes-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/sourdoughbrandon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/brown-butter-cream-cheese-frosting-for-sourdough-pumpkin-cupcakes-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sourdoughbrandon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/brown-butter-cream-cheese-frosting-for-sourdough-pumpkin-cupcakes-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/sourdoughbrandon.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/brown-butter-cream-cheese-frosting-for-sourdough-pumpkin-cupcakes-150x225.jpg 150w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<h3 id=\"frost\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Frost\"\/>5.
