I love to make Cupcakes!
I mean after all, they are just a miniature
version of cake. I love the idea of having
all of my favorite flavors of cakes in
a individual size portion.
Besides it keeps me on track with
the whole “portion Control” issue. (lol)
Key lime is one of my husbands favorite flavor
in pie….so naturally I needed to make up
a cake for him!
Key Lime Cupcakes
*Makes 24 cupcakes*
1 (3oz.) Lime Jello
1 1/3 C. Sugar
2 C. Flour
1/2 tsp. Salt
1 tsp. Baking Powder
1 tsp. Baking Soda
1 C. Oil
1 C. Orange Juice
1 TBSP Key Lime Juice
6 Egg’s
Sift together the jello, sugar, flour,
salt, baking powder and soda.~ set aside
In mixing bowl beat together the
oil, orange and lime juice, egg’s.
Add in half of the flour mixture to the
wet ingredients. Mix together.
Repeat with the remaining flour mixture,
mixing until smooth.
Let batter set for 10 minutes while
the oven is heating to 350.
Fill cupcake lined pans 3/4 full
with batter. Bake for 22-25 minutes,
or until toothpick comes clean when
poked into the center.
Let cool completely on wire rack
before frosting.
We like ours with a homemade
cream cheese frosting.
Happy Baking,
