Gingerbread Cookie Cupcake

Recipe from 101 Gourmet Cupcakes in 10 minutes

1 box spice cake mix
3 eggs
1/3 cup molasses
1/3 cup oil
1/2 cup milk
Grated orange zest, optional

Mix together cake mix, eggs, molasses, oil and milk. Pour into paper liners and fill 3/4 full.
Bake at 350 degrees for 15-18 minutes until the cake springs back when lightly touched. Cool completely before frosting

Cream Cheese Frosting
8 oz. cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup butter
3 3/4 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla

Beat together butter and cream cheese until light and creamy. Add sugar and vanilla. Keep the speed slow on your mixer to avoid sugar flying everywhere! Mix together until creamy and smooth.
