Tender citrus muffins made with a champagne reduction and topped with 
a boozy orange glaze are the sweetest way to get your mimosa fix.

Prep: 10 mins
Cook: 17 mins
Total: 27 mins

CHAMPAGNE REDUCTION
In a small saucepan over medium-high heat, bring the champagne to a boil.

Once boiling, reduce to medium heat and allow to simmer until reduced 
down to 1/4 cup, about 6 to 8 minutes. Set aside to cool completely 
to room temperature.

MUFFINS
Preheat the oven to 400F.

Spray the wells of a 12-count muffin pan with non-stick spray or line 
with cupcake liners. Set aside.

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

In a medium size bowl, whisk together the butter, sugar, orange zest, 
milk, and champagne reduction until smooth. Add the eggs and whisk 
again until completely combined. Add the vanilla and whisk again.

Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, being 
careful not to overmix.

Spoon the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 5 minutes. 
Without opening the oven door, reduce the temperature to 350F and 
bake for an additional 11-12 minutes until a toothpick inserted in 
the center comes out mostly clean. Allow muffins to cool in the pan 
for 5 minutes before removing and allowing to cool completely on a 
wire rack before glazing.

ORANGE GLAZE
In a small bowl, whisk together the orange juice, champagne, and 
cream or milk. Add the powdered sugar and continue whisking until smooth.

One at a time, dip the tops of the cooled muffins into the glaze. 
Allow the excess to drip off. Turn muffins right side up and allow 
glaze to set. Dip a second time, if desired. Store leftovers at room 
temperature up to 3 days or in the refrigerator up to 5 days. Muffins 
freeze well, up to 2 months. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight.
