Blue Raspberry Lemonade Cupcakes
Directions:
- Cupcakes: Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line your muffin tins with cupcake liners.
- Cream butter and sugar in a large bowl. Add the eggs and combine until light and fluffy.
- Add the lemon zest and lemon juice. Then add the sour cream
- Combine dry ingredients and add to the cream mixture. The batter will be thick but trust me, it will be so good!
- Fill your cupcake liners 2/3 full with batter, and bake for 20 to 22 minutes, or they bounce back by a soft touch. Cool completely before you add the icing.
- Icing: Cream the butter and cream cheese until fluffy. Add the Kool-Aid packet and vanilla. Slowly add a cup of powdered sugar.
- Beat well, until the frosting is creamy. Add the amount of powdered sugar depending on the consistency you want.
