Ingredients

  • CUPCAKES
  • 1 cup All-purpose Flour
  • ½ teaspoons Baking Powder
  • ¼ teaspoons Baking Soda
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • ½ cups Granulated Sugar
  • ¼ cups Vegetable Oil
  • 2 whole Egg Whites
  • ⅓ cups Pink Lemonade Concentrate, Thawed
  • ¼ cups Buttermilk
  • 4 drops Pink Food Coloring

  • Icing
  • ½ cups Unsalted Butter, Room Temperature
  • 2-¾ cups Icing Sugar
  • ⅛ teaspoons Salt
  • 4 Tablespoons Pink Lemonade Concentrate, Thawed
  • 4 drops Pink Food Coloring

Preparation

CUPCAKES

1. Preheat oven to 350 F. Line muffin pan with liners (makes 12 cupcakes).

2. In a small bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside.

3. In a large bowl, whisk together sugar, oil, egg whites and lemonade concentrate.

4. Alternately whisk in flour mixture and buttermilk, making three additions of flour mixture and two of buttermilk, beating until just smooth.

5. Add just enough food coloring to turn the batter a light shade of pink.

6. Scoop batter into liners (fill about three-fourths full).

7. Bake in preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until tops of cupcakes spring back when lightly touched.

8. Let cool in pan on rack for 10 minutes. Remove from pan and let cool completely on rack.

FROSTING:

1. Add the butter, confectioner’s sugar, salt, lemonade concentrate, and a few drops of food coloring to the stand mixer and mix on low using the paddle attachment until combined.

2. Turn the speed to med-high until the buttercream is fluffy and uniformly pink.

3. Pipe or spread onto cooled cupcakes.

4. Use lemon candies or other edible decorations to embellish the frosted cupcakes.

Made these this morning. Very easy yo make and tasted great. I did have to use twice as much powder sugar and lemonade conc. in the frosting because otherwise it tasted like sweetened butter. They turned out very yummy.
