Best Orange Date Frosting Recipes
DATE CUPCAKES WITH ORANGE CREAM CHEESE FROSTING
I got this great recipe from one of my favorite cookbooks, "Cupcakes! By: Elinor Klivans". These cupcakes are so yummy the only thing I changed was the frosting, I used my cream cheese frosting recipe instead, which is less sweet.
