YUMMY Cupcakes!

I made cupcakes for a Relief Society tasters' table.  I decided to try a new kind of cupcake.  I made Key Lime Pie Cupcakes...and they were so yummy!  I thought I'd share the recipe. 

Key Lime Pie Cupcakes

1 box white cake mix
3 eggs
1 cup half and half
6 T. key lime juice
1 can sweetened condensed milk
1 recipe whipped cream (see below)
4 T. grated lime peel for garnish

Mix cake mix, eggs, half and half, and 3 tablespoons of lime juice.  Pour 1-2 tablespoons of batter into each paper liner.  In a separate bowl, mix sweetened condensed milk and the rest of the lime juice.  Evenly divide lime milk into batter-filled cups.  Top with remaining batter and fill 3/4 full.  Bake at 350 degrees for 15-18 minutes or until cake springs back when lightly touched.  Cool completely.  Frost with whipped cream and garnish with grated lime peel.

Whipped Cream

2 c. heavy whipping cream
1/4-1/2 c. powdered sugar

Pour cream into large mixing bowl and mix until cream thickens and soft peaks form.  Add sugar.  Beat until stiff peaks form.  The stiff the cream, the easier it is to frost the cupcakes.  Keep refrigerated.  DELISH!
