Lemon Blueberry Cupcakes

My fàvorite Lemon Blueberry Cupcàkes! Topped with homemàde Lemon Creàm Cheese Frosting ànd Fresh Blueberries. If you bake one recipe this weekend, may I suggest these beautiful lemon blueberry cupcakes?

They’re quite simple to make, but yield very impressive results. The cupcakes themselves are supremely moist, just sweet enough, and exploding with blueberries in every bite. The batter will be quite thick, but fret not, as they bake up beautifully!
