In The Kitchen: Lemon Blueberry Cupcakes





Happy Fourth of July, everyone! I hope you're celebrating exactly how YOU want to. Me? I'm celebrating the 238-year-old rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of cupcakes.

So, let's get down to business. I started off with a delicious-looking lemon blueberry cake from Cooking Classy.  To prepare the cake batter and decadent lemon cream cheese frosting, pop over there for the recipe. I found it on Pinterest while hunting for something to use up all the fresh blueberries I harvested yesterday. 



Sadly, I had no reasonable excuse to bake and decorate a beautiful three layer cake. Cupcakes, on the other hand?











As I said before, please go to the real recipe here  to make your batter and frosting.

For me, the batter made 32 cupcakes, which I baked at 350* for 17 minutes.

I used a Wilton 1M tip for the frosting, then added some blue sugar sprinkles and a blueberry.

Don't they look positively patriotic? Enjoy!
