Mandarin Orange Cupcakes

This is a recipe my sister gave me a long time ago and it's a crowd pleaser! Even better, it's super easy. You need:

1 box of white cake mix + the additional ingredients listed on the box
2 cans of mandarin oranges
Heavy whipping cream
2 TSP of sugar

-Make the box cake mix as instructed, except substitute the liquids (water/milk) with the juice from the mandarin oranges. Then bake.... In the meantime, whip up your cream with the sugar. When the cupcakes are cool, top with a couple of the mandarin orange pieces and you're done! It's so refreshing and pretty too. You could add a mint leaf to add a little green if you're feeling fancy. :)

"My professional life has been centered on the home, the well being of the family and everything that these subjects encompass. When I began working in this area more than 25 years ago, the subject of homemaking as it relates to families was largely overlooked, though the interest was clearly broad and the desire for information strong. My colleagues and I soon discovered we were satisfying a deeply felt unmet need."
