Make these sweet, light and creamy Raspberry Cream Filled Lemon Amish Friendship Bread Cupcakes for your next Valentine’s Day Party!
Kitchen Friend Jill Emery created her own extracts from scratch:
- For the vanilla extract: Place 7-10 sliced vanilla beans in a quart sized mason jar and top with clear alcohol (vodka or moonshine works great). Keep covered. Takes 6-8 weeks before you can use for baking.
- For the lemon extract: Grate the rind off two lemons and place in a small jelly jar. Top with clear alcohol. Keep covered. Takes 6-8 weeks before you can use for baking.
