Vanilla Poppyseed Cupcakes with Lemon Marshmallow Frosting. I seem to be addicted to cupcakes lately. I, for one, am hoping that the cupcake trend sticks around for a long, long time!! When I was asked by the folks at Reynolds® to create a spring themed cupcake, of course my mind went immediately to lemon. (Surprise, surprise, right??) But instead of going with something bold – like lemon curd, which has been my recent addiction – I went with something a little more subtle. This lemon frosting is a twist on my all-time favorite frosting. I have always been a fan of Reynolds®, but their new line of Baked For You® StayBrite® Baking Cups are awesome. Vanilla Poppyseed Cupcakes with Lemon Marshmallow Frosting Vanilla poppyseed cupcakes are topped with a lightly lemon flavored marshmallow frosting.

Blueberry and lemon cupcakes- the perfect birthday cake. Mike whisked me away for my birthday surprise of two days full of wonderful meals, good times with friends, and a little more wine than I probably should have. The only thing missing? My birthday cake. I mean, you can’t let a birthday pass and not have cake, right? That is the one time of the year when you can stuff your face full of cake and really not feel guilty! So, when Mike and I returned, I hauled out my mixer and made myself cupcakes. At least I got my cake- even if I did have to make it!

Perfect Cupcake Frosting and Filling. I always hear people say “I’m not a frosting person”. And while part of me thinks that’s ridiculous, I can understand to a certain extent when so many frosting are sickeningly sweet. I love frosting that is more like whipped cream. I used to actually fold whipped cream into classic buttercream to get that lighter texture and not so rich taste. Then I realized that I could get that same result by making it like this- starting with a white sauce. Perfect Cupcake Frosting and Filling 3 tablespoon Flour1/2 cup milk (whole milk is best, but I use non-fat when it’s all I have and it’s actually fine)1/2 cup real butter (I prefer salted, but you can use also unsalted and add salt to taste)1/2 cup sugar (that’s granulated sugar, not powdered sugar)1 teaspoon vanilla extract, or other flavor if you wish.
