ORANGE BLOSSOMS
This recipe started out as the Lemon Blossoms from "Paula Deen & Friends" cookbook. I didn't have the lemon or lemon pudding called for so I improvised. A word of warning - do not try this with a hand mixer. The dough is unbelievably stiff and I nearly burned out the motor on mine. The finished cupcakes are light as a feather though. I was truly amazed that such a thick batter would bake up so light.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray miniature muffin tins with cooking spray.
- Combine the cake mix, pudding mix, eggs and oil and blend with a stand mixer for about 2 minutes or until smooth.
- Pour about a tablespoon of batter into each spot in the muffin tin. I used a mini ice cream scoop about the size of a melon baller.
- Bake for about 12 minutes. Remove from pan immediately and set aside to cool slightly.
- Sift the confectioner's sugar into a mixing bowl. Add the water, oil and vanilla and mix until smooth.
- Dip the warm cupcakes into the glaze and place them on a wire rack with waxed paper underneath to cool and for the glaze to set. This could take a while especially if it's humid.
- When the glaze has set completely the cupcakes can be stored in an airtight container until it's time to serve them.

Tips:
- To enhance the flavor of the lamb, consider marinating it overnight in a mixture of orange juice, olive oil, garlic, rosemary, and thyme.
- For a crispy and flavorful crust, sear the lamb in a hot skillet before braising it in the orange blossom sauce.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when searing the lamb. This will prevent the meat from cooking evenly and becoming tough.
- Use a good quality orange blossom water for the best flavor. You can find this ingredient at most specialty food stores.
- Serve the lamb with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
