Ingredients

Servings

• 1.5 cup All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• ¹⁄₄ teaspoon Salt
• ¹⁄₂ cup Unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 2 Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 4 ounce White chocolate, melted
• ¹⁄₂ cup Milk
• ¹⁄₄ cup Cranberry juice
• 2 tablespoon Lime juice
• 1 cup Powdered sugar
• Cranberries, for garnish

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a cupcake pan with liners.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
3. In a separate large bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
4. Beat in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.
5. Gradually mix in the melted white chocolate.
6. Alternately add the dry ingredients and milk to the butter mixture, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients.

10. Remove the cupcakes from the oven and let them cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
