| Comments: |
The fresh lime-margarita cupcake tastes like the love child of a stiff drink and an airy meringue. There\'s lime juice and zest in both the batter and the buttery frosting—plus a dash of tequila, just for fun.
|
|
Ingredients:
4 Tablespoons tequila gold
|
Directions:
Using the electric mixer, beat the butter until creamy. Beat in 1/3 of the confectioners sugar. Beat in the tequila, lime juice, vanilla, lime peel, salt and the food coloring until smooth and creamy. Beat in the remaining confectioners sugar one-third at a time, until just soft enough to spread.
Spread the frosting on the cooled cupcakes. Add the sugar crystals to a bowl; lay each frosted cupcake on its side in the bowl and gently rotate to form a rim of sugar. Top each cupcake with a lime wedge candy. |
