Preheat oven to 350 de-
grees. Grease 48 mini-muffin
cups.
Beat butter and sugar in
medium mixer bowl until
creamy. Add flour; beat until
mixture is evenly moist,
crumbly and can be formed
into balls. Shape dough into
1-inch balls. Press each ball
onto bottom and up side of
prepared muffin cups to form
wells. Place 5 morsels in
each cup.
Beat eggs in medium bowl
with wire whisk. Stir in sweet-
ened condensed milk and or-
ange extract. Spoon almost a
measuring tablespoon of mix-
ture into each muffin cup, fill-
ing about
3
⁄
4
full.
Bake for 15 to 17 minutes
or until centers are puffed
and edges are just beginning
to brown. Upon removing
from oven, gently run knife
around each cup. While still
warm, top each cup with 8 to
10 morsels (they will soften
and retain their shape). Cool
completely in pans on wire
racks. With tip of knife, re-
move cookie cups from muf-
fin pans. Top with grated or-
ange peel just before serving.
Store in covered container in
refrigerator.
Tips:
Love lemon but not crazy
about orange? Simply substi-
tute lemon extract for the or-
ange extract and use grated
lemon peel (2 lemons need-
ed).

We’ve asked the experts
for their best tips on how to
do everything to get the most
out of your wedding day hair
and makeup. Whether you’re
planning to look totally natur-
al or go all-out glam, here’s
how to...
Fix an eye makeup mishap.
Be extra careful -- once it’s
smudged, you don’t want to
make it worse, or you’ll have
to start over from scratch.
Scott Miselnicky, executive
director of global product de-
velopment at Clinique, sug-
gests moistening a cotton
swab with makeup remover
and gently dabbing the mis-
take until it’s completely
gone. Go slowly so you don’t
take off too much!
Flatter your face.
Choose a hairstyle that will
bring out your best feature,
explains Jamal Hammadi,
celebrity hairstylist and
founder of Hamadi Beauty.
“For an updo, placing the
style between the top of your
ear and the top of your eye
(like a high ponytail) will en-
hance the shape of your eyes,
while placing it lower (like a
chignon) will put the focus
more on your lips and neck,”
he says. See our favorite hair-
styles at TheKnot.com/beau-
ty.
Stave off a breakout.
Right before the wedding
is not the time to try out a
new skin care regimen. No
matter how tired you are,
make sure you stick to your
cleansing schedule and re-
move your makeup before
you go to bed. If you really
need more ammo, try a mask
that contains salicylic acid,
but make sure you test it at
least six weeks before the
wedding so a possible reac-
tion will be long gone by the
time you walk down the aisle.
Apply perfect foundation.
It only takes two tools to
do this right: a quality brush
and a makeup sponge. First,
squeeze or pump foundation
onto your hand and use a
brush to “paint” it on your
face for overall coverage.
Then, use a sponge to blend
away any streaks and to re-
move excess buildup.
Pull off a bold lip color.
Lots of brides like to amp
up their look for the recep-
tion, and a deeper lip hue is a
great way to do it. “Using a
brighter lip color will always
make your teeth look whiter;
a big plus on your wedding
day!” says Stila makeup artist
Sarah Lucero. Keep the rest
of your features relatively
neutral and your eye makeup
soft, not severe.
Keep your lipstick
on your lips.
Miselnicky suggests apply-
ing a small amount of Vase-
line onto your teeth to keep
lipstick from winding up
there. “Also, gently blot your
lipstick with a tissue after
you’ve applied it to remove
any excess,” he says. “Believe
me, the groom will be hap-
py!”
Fight the frizzies.
“Always try to wash and
rinse your hair with cool wa-
ter, which will help maintain
its natural moisture and pre-
vent your hair from drying
out,” Hammadi says. Follow
with a frizz-fighting product
that will boost your protection
level. Try Hamadi Shea Spray
(beautyhabit.com) -- spritz it
onto wet hair after showering,
and then again after you’ve
styled to keep things smooth.
Make mascara run-proof.
Waterproof mascara is a
wedding day must-have. “I
use waterproof on everyone
involved in the wedding party
because you never know who
will tear up!” Lucero says. For
lower lashes, she recom-
mends applying mascara with
a flat eyeliner brush rather
than the mascara wand. “This
trick prevents smearing un-
der your eyes, which can
make you look tired,” she ex-
plains.
Prevent dark under-eye cir-
cles.
It might be tough, but Di-
ane Berson, an assistant at-
tending physician at New
York-Presbyterian Hospital,
says getting plenty of sleep is
the key (and not just the
night before the wedding).
“Sleep with your head elevat-
ed on a pillow to reduce puffi-
ness, and try not to rub your
eyes,” she says. It’s also a
good idea to use an eye
cream that brightens as well
as hydrates.
Touch up your makeup.
You may not have time to
redo your makeup before the
reception starts, but you
should give yourself a quick
once-over in order to make
sure you stay looking great
(after all, nearly every second
of the reception will be pho-
tographed). Makeup expert
Francis Roman of Butterfly
Studio says to skip blush and
eye shadow (too risky). In-
stead, apply another layer of
lip color and blot your T-zone
with a sheet of oil-removing
paper. Then run a makeup
sponge or a cotton swab be-
neath your lower lashes to re-
move any mascara or eye
shadow that may have
smudged or fallen beneath
them, and you’re good to go.
