Mini King Cupcakes 
prep: 15 mins
rise: 1 hr 30 mins
bake: 20 mins
total: 2 hrs 5 mins
Yield: Makes 1 dozen
Ingredients:
½ cup warm whole milk (110°)
2 (1/4-ounce) packages of dry yeast
⅓ cup sugar, divided
½ cup unsalted butter, melted
3 egg yolks
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
½ teaspoon lemon zest
3 teaspoons fresh lemon juice, divided
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
½ cup cake flour
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon, divided
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
1 large egg, lightly beaten
1 cup powdered sugar
1 ½ tablespoons hot water
Purple, green, and yellow sugar sprinkles
Directions:
Step 1
Combine milk, yeast, and 1/4 cup sugar in a bowl. Stir well, and set in a warm place for about 10 minutes. In another bowl, combine butter and the next 3 ingredients; stir in 2 teaspoons of lemon juice.
Step 2
Combine flours, 2 teaspoons of cinnamon, and kosher salt in a large mixing bowl. Add milk mixture and butter mixture, and beat, adding 1 to 2 tablespoons flour if the dough is too sticky until the dough is smooth and forms a shaggy mass. (It should remain soft.)
Step 3
Place dough in a well-greased bowl, turning to grease top. Cover with a kitchen towel, and let rise in a warm place (85°), free from drafts, for about 1 hour.
Step 4
Punch the dough down, and place it on a lightly floured surface. Roll dough into a 12- x 8-inch rectangle. Combine the remaining 1 teaspoon of cinnamon and 4 teaspoons of sugar, and sprinkle evenly over the dough. Roll dough into a log, and cut it into 12 equal pieces. Place pieces into paper baking cups in a muffin pan; let rest for 30 minutes.
Step 5
Preheat oven to 375°. Brush cupcake tops with beaten egg, and bake for 20 minutes. Remove from pan, and let cool on a wire rack. Combine powdered sugar, water, and the remaining 1 teaspoon of lemon juice in a small bowl. Drizzle over cooled cupcakes, and top with sprinkles.
