  • 1.5 cup(s) sugar
  • 2 teaspoon(s) baking powder
  • 2 teaspoon(s) vanilla extract
  • 4 large eggs
  • 2.25 cup(s) all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup(s) milk
  • 1/2 cup(s) orange juice
  • 2 teaspoon(s) grated orange zest

  • 1 tablespoon(s) grated orange zest
  • Liquid orange food color (optional)
  • Garnish: thin strips orange zest
Directions
  1. Heat oven to 350°F. Line 24 regular-size (2 1⁄2-in.-diameter) muffin cups with paper or foil liners.
  2. Make Cupcakes: Beat butter, sugar, baking powder, vanilla, orange juice and zest in a large bowl with mixer on high 3 minutes or until fluffy. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each. On low speed, beat in flour in 3 additions alternately with milk in 2 additions, just until blended, scraping sides of bowl as needed. Spoon evenly in muffin cups.
  3. Bake 22 to 25 minutes until a wooden pick inserted in center of cupcakes comes out clean and tops are golden. Cool in pans on a wire rack 5 minutes before removing from pans to rack to cool completely.
  4. Frosting: Beat ingredients in medium bowl on medium-high speed until soft peaks form when beaters are lifted. Tint with food color; beat just until blended. Frost and garnish cupcakes.
