If you like Pink Lemonade, you'll like these! They have the same tart but sweet taste.

Ingredients:
• 1 c. all-purpose flour
• 1/2 tsp. baking powder
• 1/4 tsp. baking soda
• Pinch salt
• 1/2 c. granulated sugar
• 1/4 c. vegetable oil
• 2 egg whites
• 1/3 c. thawed frozen Pink Lemonade Concentrate
• 1/4 c. buttermilk
• 2 or more drops red food coloring

Preheat oven to 350 F. Line muffin pan with liners.

Directions

In a small bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt. Set aside.

In a large bowl, whisk together sugar, oil, egg whites and lemonade concentrate. Alternately whisk in flour mixture and buttermilk, making three additions of flour mixture and two of buttermilk, beating until just smooth. Add just enough food coloring to turn the batter a light shade of pink.

Scoop batter into liners (fill about three-fourths full). Bake in preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until tops of cupcakes spring back when lightly touched. Let cool in pan on rack for 10 minutes. Remove from pan and let cool completely on rack. Top cooled cupcakes with frosting (see below).

Lemonade Buttercream:
3 c. + 3 Tbsp. confectioner’s sugar
1 stick unsalted butter at room temperature
1/8 tsp. salt
2 Tbsp. pink lemonade concentrate
Red food coloring

Add the butter, confectioner’s sugar, salt, lemon juice, and a few drops of food coloring to the stand mixer and mix on low using the paddle attachment until combined. Turn the speed to med-high until the buttercream is fluffy and uniformly pink. Pipe or spread onto cooled cupcakes.

This is one of my grandmothers recipes from the old days. She swore it worked all her life. It is to be used on aches and pains (not to be ingested!)

Ingredients:
• 1 oz. wintergreen
• 1 oz Spirit of Camphor
• 48 Bayer Aspirin
• 1 bottle Alcohol

Directions:


Mix all together in a large glass container. After 24 hours, separate into smaller containers for easier use.

Red
Ingredients:

• 3/4 cup milk
• 1 package (1/4 oz.) active dry yeast
• 1/2 teaspoon granulated white sugar
• 3 1/2 - 4 cups all purpose flour
• 1/4 cup light brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/4 teaspoon cloves
• 1/4 teaspoon allspice
• 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
• 2 large eggs
• 1/2 cup candied fruit and peel mix
• 1/4 cup raisins or currants

Egg wash:

• 1 large egg
• 1 tablespoon milk

Glaze:

• 1/2 cup sifted confectioners’ sugar
• 1 tablespoon milk

Directions:

Buns: In a small saucepan or in the microwave heat the milk until lukewarm, about 100 degrees F. Add the yeast and 1/2 teaspoon sugar and stir to combine. Set aside for about 10 minutes or until the yeast is activated and is foamy.
Meanwhile in the bowl of your electric mixer, combine the flour, brown sugar, spices, and salt. Once the yeast is foamy, add to the flour mixture and beat to combine. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. With the mixer on low, gradually add the butter, mixing until the butter is incorporated and the dough comes together. With the dough attachment, knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic (about 5 minutes). Transfer the dough to a lightly floured surface and, by hand, gradually knead in the candied and dried fruit.
Place the dough in a lightly greased bowl, turning the dough once, so the top is lightly greased. Cover with plastic wrap or a clean dish towel and place in a warm spot to rise until it has doubled in size, about 1 ½ hours.
When the dough has doubled in size, punch it down, and divide into 12 equal pieces. Form each piece into a small round ball and place on a parchment lined baking sheet Place three buns to a row, four rows altogether. They should be spaced so they have enough room to double in size. Make an egg wash of one beaten egg with 1 tablespoon milk, and brush the tops of the buns with the wash. Cover with plastic wrap or a clean dish towel and place in a warm spot until almost doubled in size, about 45 - 60 minutes.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Brush the tops of the buns with the egg wash again and, with a sharp, lightly greased knife (I spray it with Pam), make a cross in the tops of each bun. Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for about 15 minutes, or until the buns are nicely browned and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Place on a wire rack to cool.

Glaze: Combine the confectioners’ sugar and milk and mix until smooth. Place the glaze in a paper cone, piping bag or a small Ziploc bag. Cut the end of the cone or bag and pipe a cross in the cut marks of each bun.

Makes 12 buns.
