1 tsp. baking powder

2 ¼ cup All-purpose flour

Mix eggs and sugar until lemony color. Add the oil, milk, sour cream, vanilla, lime juice, and lime zest, then mix.  Add the flour, salt and baking powder.  Mix until smooth.  Fill cupcake liners 2/3 full.  Bake 350 15-18 min.  This recipe makes about 24 cupcakes.

Frosting

1 8oz pkg cream cheese, softened

½ cup butter, softened

2 lbs. powder sugar

1 tsp vanilla

3-6 Tbs. lime juice

Cream the butter and cream cheese.  Add in everything but the lime juice and mix, the slowly add in the lime juice until frosting until it gets to spreading consistency.  I like to pipe it on with a 1M cake tip.
