I know Mother's Day was a while ago, but I had the most delicious treat that Sunday that I wanted to share with everyone. My friend Rose also eats gluten free and at church that Sunday while all the ladies were eating a treat, she brought out some gluten free plates she had made up for the four or so people who can't eat wheat. I consider that going the extra mile! I was so touched that she went to the trouble to bake for us, and she said she was just making some for herself anyway and she thought everyone else would like to try them, too. Right you are, Rose. Here's her recipe, which is, in my biased opinion, another great gluten free summer dessert.
Gluten Free Orange Dreamsicle Muffins
1 box Betty Crocker Gluten Free Yellow Cake Mix
3 eggs
1 stick softened butter
1/2 tsp orange extract
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 cup orange juice from concentrate
1 cup white chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line muffin tins with paper liners. In a large bowl mix cake mix and all other ingredients except chocolate chips until well blended with a hand mixer. Gently fold in white chips. Bake for about 20 minutes. Cool on a wire rack. Top with Orange Glaze while cooling.
Orange Glaze
1/4 cup fresh squeezed orange juice
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
2 tsp orange zest
Mix all ingredients together until smooth and desired consistency. Drizzle over muffins while warm.
Happy eating!

I love orange dreamsicles. A cupcake version of them would be awesome. I have a sweet treat linky party going on at my blog and I'd love it if you'd come by and link your cupcakes up. http://sweet-as-sugar-cookies.blogspot.com/2011/06/sweets-for-saturday-21.html
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness I LOVED these. My non gf roommate asked me to bring them to Linger Longer on Sunday she liked them so much.
ReplyDeleteI'm new to your blog but I already love it. I can't wait to make this for the church pot luck Sunday! Usually I skip the pot lucks because I don't know what everyone puts in there foods. It'll be so nice to be able to eat so something there. Do I have to share!? :) JK thanks for sharing this great recipe and keep up the great work! :)
ReplyDeleteThis sounds amazing! I'll have to give it a try this summer - so happy that there are so many (easy to make!) Gluten-Free recipe's around these days!
