Ingredients

1-1/2 cups butter, softened

1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened

2-1/4 cups sugar

6 eggs

3 tablespoons lemon juice

2 teaspoons lemon extract

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1-1/2 teaspoons grated lemon peel

3 cups all-purpose flour

GLAZE:

5-1/4 cups confectioners' sugar

1/2 cup plus 3 tablespoons milk

3-1/2 teaspoons lemon extract

Directions

In a large bowl, cream the butter, cream cheese and sugar until light and fluffy.

Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.

Beat in the lemon juice, extracts and lemon peel.

Add flour; beat just until moistened.

Fill greased miniature muffin cups two-thirds full.

Bake at 325° for 10-15 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.

Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks to cool completely.

In a small bowl, combine glaze ingredients.

Dip tops of cakes into glaze; place on waxed paper to dry.

Yield: 8-1/2 dozen.

I am addicted to lemon lately, and this sounds like a great "fix" for that craving...would be great to keep in the freezer for a moment's notice! Thanks, midgelet...Krum
