Delicious orange cupcakes are a hit for every celebration, loved by all ages.
Ingredients:
  • 20.00 ml poppyseeds
  • 41.20 gm milk
  • 300g self-raising flour
  • 20.00 ml grated orange rind
  • 115g caster sugar
  • 125g butter
  • 90g marmalade
  • 60ml orange juice
  • 250g cream cheese, at room temperature
  • 230g icing sugar
  • 42.00 gm fresh lemon juice
  • Cachous, to sprinkle
Instructions:
  • Preheat your oven to 180°C. Line 12 muffin pans with paper cases. In a small bowl, soak poppyseeds in milk. Set aside. In a separate bowl, combine self-raising flour, grated orange rind, and caster sugar.
  • In a saucepan over medium heat, melt 125g of butter with 1/4 cup (90g) of orange marmalade. Mix this with the flour, 2 eggs, 1/4 cup (60ml) of fresh orange juice, and milk until well combined. Spoon the mixture into the cases and bake for 15-20 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean.
  • Start by using an electric beater to blend 250g of cream cheese, at room temperature, with 1 1/2 cups (230g) of icing sugar until smooth. Add 2 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice and beat until the mixture is light and fluffy. Chill in the fridge for 1 hour to thicken before spreading over cooled cakes and topping with cachous.
