I found this recipe in the local newspaper. The cupcakes are moist and not too sweet. Very good with cream cheese frosting. Adapted from Good Housekeeping's Great Baking Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour |
1/2 teaspoon baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup butter or 1/2 cup margarine, softened |
1 cup granulated sugar |
3 large eggs |
1 cup orange marmalade |
1/2 cup buttermilk |
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. 2. Line 18 muffin cups with cupcake papers. 3. In a medium bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. 4. Set aside. 5. In a large bowl, with the mixer at medium speed, beat butter and sugar until light and creamy, about 5 minutes. 6. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. 7. Beat in marmalade. 8. Reduce speed to low; add flour mixture alternately with buttermilk, beginning and ending with flour mixture. 9. Beat just until combined. 10. Pour batter evenly into prepared cups, filling each about 2/3 full. 11. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center of a cupcake comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. 12. Place pans on wire racks; let cool 10 minutes, then remove cupcakes from pans and let cool completely on wire racks. 13. Frost as desired. |
