[FOOD DIARY] LEMON CUPCAKES


Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a muffin pan with paper liners.


In a medium bowl (or kitchen aid bowl, hehe) cream together the sugar and butter.


Beat in eggs one at a time.


Stir in vanilla and lemon.


Combine flour and baking powder, then add to the creamed mixture and mix well. 


Finally stir in milk until batter is smooth.


Spoon batter into the prepared pan and bake for 20-25 minutes.


Let cool.


Follow the steps here to create a thick and creamy frosting. Be sure to add a fun spring color!


Roll cupcakes in a bowl of sprinkles!


Voila. A perfect cupcake for spring!

Until next time,
Shannon
