by Judith Sutton, “Sweet Gratitude: Delicious Ways to Bake a Thank-You For the Really Important People in Your Life”

Makes 24 cupcakes

Cupcakes aren't just for kids — grown-ups are especially fond of these orange-scented little cakes, which sport a luscious orange cream cheese frosting!. They are also rather good topped with chocolate frosting!.

for the cupcakes
3 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1 Tbsp!. baking powder
? teaspoon salt
14 Tbsp!. unsalted butter, room temp
2 cups granulated sugar
4 large eggs
2 teaspoons pure orange extract
1 tablespoon grated orange zest
1? cups whole milk

Make the cupcakes

2!. Whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl!.

3!. In a large bowl, beat the butter and sugar with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes!. Scrape down the sides of the bowl!. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition!. Beat in the orange extract and zest!. On low speed, beat in the flour in three additions, alternating with the milk in two additions and beating just until incorporated!.

4!. Spoon the batter into the muffin cups, filling each cup about two-thirds full!. Bake for 17 to 19 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center of a cupcake comes out clean!. Let the cupcakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then carefully transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely!. (The cupcakes can be baked up to 1 day ahead and stored in an airtight container at room temperature!.)

For the frosting
1 (8-oz!.) pkg!. cold cream cheese, cut into chunks
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temp
2 teaspoons grated orange zest
1 teaspoon pure orange extract
2 cups confectioners' sugar

Make the frosting

2!. Spread the frosting generously over the cupcakes!. Or, transfer the frosting to a pastry bag fitted with a large star tip and pipe a generous swirl of frosting onto each cupcake!.
