  GLAZE:
• 2 cups confectioners' sugar
• 3 tablespoons lemon juice

Directions

• In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the sour cream and extracts. Combine the flour, salt and baking soda; add to creamed mixture just until moistened.
• Fill greased or paper-lined muffin cups three-fourths full. Bake at 400° for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack.
• Combine the glaze ingredients; drizzle over muffins. Serve warm. Yield: 1 dozen.
