Ingredients:

Serving

3 eggs
1 1/3 cups sugar
1/2 cup canola oil
1/2 cup orange juice
1 tsp almond extract
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tsp ground cinnamon
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground cloves
1 1/2 cups shredded zucchini
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup butter
1/4 cup 2% low-fat milk
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/2-2 cups confectioners' sugar

Directions:

In a large bowl, beat the eggs, sugar, oil, orange juice and extract. Combine dry ingredients; gradually add to egg mixture and mix well. Stir in zucchini.
Fill paper-lined muffin cups two-thirds full. Bake at 350° for 20-25 minutes or until toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing to a wire rack.
For frosting, combine the brown sugar, butter and milk in a saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Remove from the heat; stir in vanilla. Cool to lukewarm.
Gradually beat in confectioners' sugar until frosting reaches spreading consistency. Frost cupcakes.
