“
These flavorful treats don't need icing, they "ice" themselves as they bake! Great for Easter!"
Ingredients
1 cup sugar
2/3 cup vegetable oil
2 eggs
1 cup orange juice
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 (11 ounce) can mandarin oranges, drained
1 cup vanilla or white chips
TOPPING:
1 cup flaked coconut
1/3 cup sugar
2 tablespoons butter, melted
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine the sugar, oil, eggs and orange juice; mix well. Combine dry ingredients; stir into orange juice mixture just until moistened. Fold in oranges and chips. Fill greased or paper-lined muffin cups two-thirds full. Combine topping ingredients; sprinkle over cupcakes. Bake at 375 degrees F for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.
