***********************************************************************

You'll need (for 6 portions):

- 4 organic oranges
- 3 eggs
- 8½ oz sugar (7 oz for the cupcakes + 1½ oz for the frosting)
- 1 tsp vanilla flavoring
- 5 oz flour
- 1½ oz cocoa
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 4½ oz melted butter
- 5⅓ oz cream cheese
- 5⅓ oz cream

Here's how:

1. Halve three oranges and scrape the pulp out of the inside. Place the hollowed out orange peels in the molds of a muffin pan.

2. Squeeze the juice of the oranges in a bowl. Add the eggs, sugar (7 oz), and vanilla flavoring and mix everything with a hand mixer.

3. Add the flour, cocoa, baking powder, and butter to the batter and mix everything again.

4. Scoop the chocolate cupcake batter into the orange peels, stopping about ⅓ of an inch from the top of the orange half. Bake at 360°F for 25 minutes.

5. Beat the cream cheese, cream, and remaining 1½ oz of sugar until a whipped frosting has formed.

6. Frost the cooled cupcakes with the whipped frosting and garnish with some orange zest.
