Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

In a large bowl, beat the granulated sugar, cream cheese, and unsalted butter until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract and orange zest.

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the orange juice. Mix until just combined.

Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.

In a small bowl, whisk the powdered sugar with a tablespoon of orange juice to make a glaze. Drizzle the glaze over the cooled muffins.
