Steps:
- 1. Heat oven to 375 degrees or 325 degrees for dark or nonstick pans.
- 2. Grease only the bottoms only of about 60 mini muffin cups with shortening or cooking spray, or you can use liners.
- 3. In a large bowl, beat all mini cake ingredients with an electric mixer on low speed for 30 seconds, then beat on medium speed for 2 minutes, scraping sides of bowl occasionally.
- 4. Divide batter evenly among muffin cups about 1/2 full. If using one pan at a time, refrigerate batter while the other little cakes are baking. Wash pan before filling with batter again, or place new liners.
- 5. Bake 10 to 13 minutes, do a toothpick test and if it comes out clean, remove the cakes to a wire rack and cool for about 5 minutes then remove them from the pan to cool completely.
- 6. Place the cupcakes on a wire rack with a drip pan below or use waxed paper to catch the dripping glaze.
- 7. In a 3-quart saucepan, mix all glaze ingredients except the hot water on low-heat, stirring frequently until sugar is dissolved.
- 8. Remove from heat. Stir in 2 teaspoons hot water. If necessary, stir in up to 1 teaspoon more water so glaze will just coat the cakes.
- 9. Turn each cake, top side down on cooling rack. Pour about 1 Tbsp. of glaze over each cake, letting the glaze coat the sides. Let stand until the glaze is set, about 15 minutes.
- 10. Top each cake with your chosen decorations. Store covered at room temperature.
- 11. Can also be frozen for up to 2 weeks.
