    Recipe Introduction


    "Just thinking of these delicate cupcakes makes me hungry!"

    List of Ingredients




    1 cup butter or margarine, softened
    2 cups sugar
    3 eggs
    2 teaspoons grated lemon peel
    1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    3½ cups all-purpose flour
    2 teaspoons baking powder
    1 teaspoon baking soda
    ½ teaspoon salt
    2 cups (16 ounces) sour cream
    FROSTING:
    3 tablespoons butter or margarine, softened
    2¼ cups confectioners' sugar
    2 tablespoons lemon juice
    ¾ teaspoon vanilla extract
    ¼ teaspoon grated lemon peel
    1 to 2 tablespoons milk

    Recipe



    In a mixing bowl, cream butter and sugar. Beat in eggs, one at a time. Add lemon peel and vanilla; mix well. Combine dry ingredients; add to creamed mixture alternately with sour cream (batter will be thick). Fill greased or paper-lined muffin cups with 1/4 cup of batter. Bake at 350 degrees for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes; remove to wire racks to cool completely. For frosting, cream butter and sugar in a small mixing bowl. Add lemon juice, vanilla, lemon peel and milk; beat until smooth. Frost cupcakes. Yield: about 2-1/2 dozen.
