Little Lemon Drops

Everyone was exclaiming about how amazing they were and I was thrilled because this recipe is so easy and it makes about 75 little cupcakes so it’s perfect for large gatherings.  

Little Lemon Drops

Ingredients:
1 box lemon cake mix
1 pkg instant vanilla pudding mix
4 large eggs
1 1/4 cups sour cream
1/2 cup milk

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 325.  Coat mini muffin tins with cooking spray. Beat the ingredients in a large bowl with an electric mixer for several minutes until blended and smooth.  Fill each muffin hole about 1/2 full. Bake for about 12 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.  Cool the pan on a wire rack for about 2 minutes and then turn the muffin pan over on a wire rack so that all the muffins are upside down.  Cool completely and once all the batter is cooked, you can make the glaze.

Lemon Glaze:
Ingredients:
3 1/2 cups powdered sugar
2 tsp grated lemon zest
2 Tbs. unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup hot water

Directions:
Place the wire racks over waxed paper.  Beat the glaze ingredients in a medium bowl until smooth.  Dip muffins in glaze to coat the bottoms and the sides and let the excess drip off back into the bowl.  Place each lemon drop back on the wire racks until the glaze is set.
