Lemon Glazed Cupcakes




I am sure there are several fancier and more delicious ways to make the cupcake portion of these lemon glazed cupcakes, but I had to make a billion of them for a church function....hence the cake mix makes its appearance.  What was delicious was the glaze recipe.  It was incredible and a good change to a good old fashioned dose of 2 inches of frosting.  :) 



1 box lemon cake mix (and necessary ingredients according to box directions)

Bake 24 cupcakes according to package directions.  Let cool.  Prepare glaze and drizzle generously over cupcakes.  Top with freshly-grated lemon zest.



Lemon Glaze
Makes 3/4 C

2 C confectioners' sugar
3-4 TBS FRESH lemon juice :)

Place confectioners' sugar in a medium bowl or liquid measuring cup; stir in lemon juice.  (Glaze should be thick, yet pourable).  Add more sugar or lemon juice as necessary, to achieve desired consistency.
