Thanks everyone who donated money towards the Black Lives Matter bake sale today! In addition, I've joined #bakersagainstracism and I'm going to be baking sweets from June 15 - June 20! All funds will be donated to charity. Email me if you're interested at boredombaking@gmail.com. It's also a totally flexible menu, just look up what you want from my past posts that are sweet. Next email me what you want, and I'll get back to you with more info! And, corresponding to today's bake sale, let me introduce: Lemon Blueberry Cupcakes!!! Lemon and blueberry definitely scream Summer.
I love the way lemon and blueberry just go together. It tastes so heavenly.
Make sure NOT to skip the frosting it is such a key feature in this recipe.
The frosting is not a dense buttercream frosting. Instead it's a light and fluffy whipped cream and cream cheese frosting.
Have fun eating this amazing dessert, you will eat the whole plate, I warn you!
