Banana Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting



For the best frosting, make sure the cream cheese is chilled. If the

frosting is too thin, place it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes or

until spreadable. Store frosted cupcakes in the refrigerator.

Ingredients



Cupcakes:

3/4 cup granulated sugar, divided

1/2 cup mashed ripe banana

1/4 cup butter or stick margarine, softened

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 large eggs

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg

1/4 cup plain fat-free yogurt



Frosting:

1 3/4 cups powdered sugar

1/2 cup (4 ounces) 1/3-less-fat cream cheese, chilled

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

2 tablespoons finely chopped walnuts, toasted

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350°.



To prepare cupcakes, combine 1/4 cup granulated sugar and banana; set

aside. Beat 1/2 cup granulated sugar, butter, and 1 teaspoon vanilla

at medium speed of a mixer until well-blended (about 3 minutes). Add

eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Add banana

mixture to sugar mixture, beating well. Lightly spoon flour into a dry

measuring cup; level with a knife. Combine flour, baking soda, salt,

and nutmeg in a bowl, stirring well with a whisk. Add flour mixture to

sugar mixture alternately with yogurt, beginning and ending with flour

mixture; mix after each addition.



Spoon batter into 12 muffin cups lined with paper liners. Bake at 350°

for 25 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted in center comes out

clean. Cool in pan 10 minutes on a wire rack; remove from pan. Cool

completely on wire rack.



To prepare the frosting, beat the powdered sugar, chilled cream

cheese, and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla at medium speed of a mixer just until

blended (do not overbeat). Spread frosting over cupcakes, and sprinkle

with toasted walnuts.

Yield
