Yield 18 cupcakes

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 lemon
1 cup water
1 cup granulated sugar
2 ¾ cups all purpose flour
1 ½ cups granulated sugar
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
2 ½ teaspoons baking powder
1 stick unsalted butter, room temperature
¼ cup olive oil
¾ cup strawberry puree
4 large egg whites
⅓ cup whole milk
3 drops red gel food coloring
1 stick unsalted butter, room temperature
8 oz cream cheese, softened
¼ teaspoon kosher salt
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 cup powdered sugar
strawberry, sliced, for garnish

Steps:

  • Make the candied lemon: Preheat the oven to 200°F (95°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Thinly slice the lemon into rounds, about ⅛-¼-inch-thick, removing the seeds.
  • In a medium shallow skillet, combine the water and granulated sugar. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until sugar dissolves, 3-4 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium-low, add the lemon slices to the syrup, and simmer until the flesh of the lemons begins to turn translucent, about 15 minutes.
  • Transfer the lemon slices to the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until crisp. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
  • Make the cupcakes: Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line 18 muffin tin cups with paper liners.
  • Make the cupcakes: In a large bowl, sift or whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, salt, and baking powder.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the butter, strawberry purée, and olive oil. Beat with an electric hand mixer on medium speed until lightened in color and fluffy.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and mix on medium-low speed until just combined.
  • In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the egg whites, milk, and red food coloring.
  • Add the egg white mixture to the batter and mix on medium-low speed until smooth.
  • Divide the batter between the prepared muffin cups, filling each about ¾ of the way.
  • Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean. Remove from the oven and let cool completely, about 20 minutes.
  • Make the lemon buttercream: In a large bowl, combine the butter, cream cheese, salt, vanilla, lemon juice, and powdered sugar. Mix with an electric hand mixer on low speed until smooth. Transfer to a zip-top bag with the corner snipped off or a piping bag fitted with a round tip.
  • Pipe the buttercream on top of the cupcakes. Garnish with the candied lemon wheels and sliced strawberries.
  • Enjoy!

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cupcake Recipes

Yield Makes about 30

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for pans
1 1/2 cups cake flour (not self-rising)
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, room temperature, plus more for pans
1 3/4 cups sugar, plus more for sprinkling fruit
4 large eggs
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 1/4 cups milk
10 ounces strawberries, hulled and cut into small dice, plus more for garnish
Strawberry Meringue Buttercream

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line 2 1/2 standard 12-cup cupcake pans with paper liners; set aside.
  • Into a medium bowl, sift together flours, baking powder, and salt; set aside.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Beat in eggs, one at a time, and then beat in vanilla. With the mixer on low speed, add the flour mixture in three parts, alternating with the milk and beginning and ending with the flour; beat until combined after each addition. Fold in strawberries.
  • Divide the batter evenly among the prepared cups so that each is about two-thirds full, about 2 ounces each. Bake, rotating the pans halfway through, until the cupcakes are golden brown and a cake tester inserted in the centers comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Transfer pans to a wire rack to cool for 5 minutes. Remove cupcakes from pan and cool completely on wire racks.
  • Make Strawberry Meringue Buttercream and spread or pipe about 1/2 cup frosting on top of each cupcake. Garnish with strawberries, cut into halves, quarters, or left whole, depending on the size.

LEMON CUPCAKES WITH RASPBERRY

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cupcake Recipes

Yield Makes 2 dozen

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter
2 cups sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla bean paste or 1 vanilla bean, scraped
5 large eggs, separated
1 3/4 cups plus 2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon all-purpose flour
1 cup plus scant 1/3 cup cake flour (not self-rising)
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup sour cream
Meyer Lemon Curd
Vanilla Bean Buttercream
Sanding sugar
24 raspberries

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line 2 standard muffin tins with cupcake liners; set aside.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add vanilla; beat to combine. Add egg yolks, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  • Sift together both flours, baking powder, and salt into a large bowl. With the mixer on low, add flour mixture; mix until well combined. Add sour cream; mix until well combined.
  • In a clean bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gently fold egg whites into batter.
  • Fill each muffin cup half full with batter. Transfer muffin tins to oven and bake until a skewer inserted into the center of one of the cupcakes comes out clean, 20 to 24 minutes. Let cupcakes cool completely.
  • Using an apple corer, make a hole in the top of each cupcake, taking care not to push the corer through the bottom; remove cake from hole. Fill a squirt bottle with lemon curd and squeeze curd into holes.
  • Fit a pastry bag with a 3/8-inch plain round tip and fill with buttercream. Pipe buttercream in a circular motion on top of each cupcake; sprinkle with sanding sugar. Pipe a dollop of buttercream in the center of each cupcake and top with a raspberry.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh, ripe strawberries. If you can't find fresh strawberries, you can use frozen strawberries that have been thawed and drained.
  • To make the cupcakes extra moist, use buttermilk instead of milk. You can also add a tablespoon of sour cream or yogurt to the batter.
  • Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cupcakes tough.
  • Bake the cupcakes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking can make the cupcakes dry.
  • Let the cupcakes cool completely before frosting them. This will help the frosting to set properly.
  • For the best results, use a piping bag to frost the cupcakes. This will help you to create a smooth, even frosting.
  • If you don't have a piping bag, you can spread the frosting on the cupcakes with a knife. Just be sure to smooth it out as best as you can.
  • Garnish the cupcakes with fresh strawberries or lemon zest before serving.

Conclusion:

These Mattie's Strawberry Lemonade Cupcakes are a delicious and refreshing treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are moist, flavorful, and have the perfect balance of sweetness and tartness. The strawberry lemonade frosting is the perfect finishing touch, and it really makes these cupcakes special. Whether you are making them for a party, a potluck, or just to enjoy at home, these cupcakes are sure to be a hit.
