Posted in Cream Cheese Frosting on September 14th, 2009 by sarita – Comments Off

Striking a lovely note for fall, this Epicurious recipe is for apple cider cupcakes with cider cream cheese frosting.

The frosting is very straightforward.  A hint of cinnamon may also be nice added to the cider.  You’ll find the full recipe for both cake and frosting after the link.

Icing ingredients:

  • 2 cups apple cider
  • 6 ounces cream cheese, cut into bits and softened
  • 1/2 cup sifted confectioners’ sugar

Make the icing:
In a saucepan boil the cider until it is reduced to about 1/4 cup and let it cool. In a bowl with an electric mixer beat together the cream cheese, the confectioners’ sugar, the reduced cider, and a pinch of salt until the icing is smooth.
