Method
Make the Cupcakes
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
- In a mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs, lemon zest, and lemon juice, mixing until well combined.
- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, until just combined.
- Gently fold in the blueberries.
- Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each liner about 2/3 full.
- Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Make the Frosting
- In a mixing bowl, beat the softened butter until creamy.
- Gradually add the powdered sugar, lemon juice, and lemon zest, mixing until smooth and fluffy.
- If the frosting is too thick, add a tablespoon of milk to reach desired consistency.
Assemble the Cupcakes
- Once the cupcakes are completely cool, frost them with the lemon frosting using a piping bag or a spatula.
- Optional: Garnish with additional blueberries or lemon zest on top.
