Recipe for Orange juice Cupcakes
I don't see recipes in blogs much or at all, but I'd like to run this one out of sentimental value. My mother used to make these. I found this in her handwriting on a yellowed piece of paper recently.
Ingredients:
2 eggs
1/2 c butter
1 c sugar
1 1/2 c flour
2 scant tsp baking powder
1/2 c milk
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla
Cream butter & sugar. Beat in eggs, one at a time. Add milk alternately with the dry goods mixed. Add vanilla.
Bake at 425 degrees until surface springs back at touch. Makes two dozen small cakes. (I use a mini cupcake pan. I coat with PAM.)
Have syrup ready before cakes are done. One cup of sugar, mixed with the juice and grated rind of one lemon and one orange.
Dip the warm cupcakes into the juice quickly. Do not soak. These keep well for several days.
Because of the sugar content, serve with simple drinks. You might want to substitute Truvia or other sweetener for sugar in juices. The cake texture might be affected by some substitutes in the batter itself. Experiment to see.
These are very sticky, but are good for receptions or tea parties, which no one has any more.
