Ingredients needed:
2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup sugar
1/3 cup butter or margarine, softened
1 cup orange-flavored soda pop
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp grated orange peel
2 large eggs
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Place a paper baking cup in each of 24 regular-size muffin cups. Or it makes 12 regular-size and 24 mini-size cupcakes.
In medium bowl, beat all ingredients with electric mixer on low speed 30 seconds, scraping bowl occasionally. Beat on medium speed 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally.
Divide batter among the muffin cups.
Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
Cool completely, about 1 hour.
You can frost them with whatever kind of frosting you would like. I made a Creamy Vanilla Frosting and used my Pampered Chef decorator to pipe the frosting on. I just made a circle around the outside of the cupcake and then spiraled in toward the center.
Then I sprinkled on some orange decorating sugar.
Mmmmmm! Really yummy!
These look wonderful. I have not made cup cakes in a really long time!

Looks darn tasty! Orange soda's one of my favorites when I indulge myself and have full calorie soda. I bet it's even better as a cupcake!
