Categories     Dessert     Snack     Candy

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons unsalted butter (at room temperature)
2 cups powdered sugar
2 tablespoons cream (or milk)
1 teaspoon orange extract
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Optional: 1/4 teaspoon citric acid (see Note below)
1 to 2 drops orange food coloring
1 pounds white candy coating
Optional: orange sparkling sugar or sprinkles

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • Combine the butter, powdered sugar, and cream in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Mix everything together on medium-low speed until it is no longer powdery.
  • Add the orange and vanilla extracts, and the citric acid, and beat them in until well-mixed.
  • Raise the speed to medium-high and beat for an additional 30 seconds until you have a creamy, smooth paste. It should have the texture of Play-Doh-smooth but not sticky, and fairly stiff.
  • If it seems too soft or sticky, add more powdered sugar as necessary until it's easy to work with.
  • Divide the candy in half, and add a few drops of orange food coloring to half the batch. Stir or knead it in until it's an even color.
  • Form each color of candy into a thin log, and twist them around each other several times until you get a swirled pattern.
  • Form the swirled candy into a thin tube, about 1 1/2-inch in diameter.
  • Wrap it well in cling wrap and twist the ends so that it stays in place.
  • One optional, but helpful trick, to keep your candy round on the bottom: cut a slit in an old cardboard paper towel tube, and put the candy inside. This will help keep the bottom from flattening as it sits in the refrigerator.
  • Refrigerate the candy for an hour, until it is very firm.
  • Once firm, use a large sharp knife to slice off rounds about 1/4-inch thick. You should get about 24 to 30 rounds from this recipe.
  • Place the white candy coating in a bowl, and microwave it in 30-second increments until melted and smooth, stirring after every 30 seconds to prevent overheating.
  • Cover a baking sheet with waxed paper or parchment paper.
  • Use a fork or dipping tools to dip a patty completely into the melted coating.
  • Once fully submerged, remove it from the bowl, and let the excess coating drip back into the bowl.
  • Set the dipped candy onto the prepared baking sheet, and while the coating is still wet, sprinkle the top with orange sparkling sugar or sprinkles.
  • Repeat the dipping process with the remaining patties. If they get too soft to dip, chill them briefly in the refrigerator until they're firm again.
  • Once all the candies are dipped, refrigerate the tray briefly to set the coating, for about 15 minutes.
  • These candies can be kept in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a month. For the best taste and texture, serve them at room temperature.

ORANGE CREAMSICLE® CUPCAKES



Orange Creamsicle® Cupcakes image

A cupcake for when you're missing summer!

Provided by Yamamsis

Categories     Desserts     Fruit Dessert Recipes     Orange Dessert Recipes

Time 1h30m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 ¼ teaspoons baking powder
⅛ teaspoon salt
1 cup white sugar
½ cup unsalted butter, softened
2 eggs
⅔ cup milk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 teaspoons orange extract
½ cup unsalted butter, softened
3 cups powdered sugar
3 tablespoons heavy cream
1 teaspoon orange extract
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 orange, peeled and sliced
½ cup orange juice
2 teaspoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners or grease with butter.
  • Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt together in a medium bowl.
  • Beat sugar and butter together in a separate bowl until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs, one at a time, then add milk, vanilla extract, and orange extract slowly.
  • Pour batter evenly into the prepared tin.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
  • Beat butter for frosting with a mixer on high speed; mix in powdered sugar. Add heavy cream 1 tablespoon at a time. Add orange extract and vanilla extract and mix until smooth. Frost cooled cupcakes.
  • Combine orange, orange juice, cornstarch, and powdered sugar for glaze in a saucepan. Stir until all lumps are gone. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and let simmer, stirring every few seconds, for 5 minutes. Strain orange out of the glaze into a container. Pour a little glaze over each frosted cupcake.

Tips:

  • Use fresh oranges for the best flavor. Clementines or tangerines can be substituted, but they will have a slightly different flavor.
  • Grate the orange zest finely. This will help release the oils and flavor of the orange.
  • Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. This will help incorporate air into the mixture and make the cake balls light and airy.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. This will help prevent the mixture from curdling.
  • Stir in the flour and baking powder until just combined. Overmixing will toughen the cake balls.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before baking. This will help the cake balls hold their shape.
  • Bake the cake balls for 10-12 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Do not overbake, or the cake balls will be dry.
  • Let the cake balls cool completely before dipping them in the orange glaze. This will help the glaze set properly.
  • For a fun variation, try dipping the cake balls in melted white chocolate or dark chocolate instead of orange glaze. You can also sprinkle them with chopped nuts, candy sprinkles, or grated orange zest.

Conclusion:

Orange creamsicle cake balls are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are light and fluffy, with a sweet and tangy orange flavor. These cake balls are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them!
