350 g Icing sugar
You'll need a 12 cavity muffin tin and paper cases
(liners).
Set the oven @ 180ºC/355ºF.
Using a whisk, beat together the butter and the sugar
until light and fluffy.
Add the eggs, flour (sifted), milk and the zest of the
two lemons and a little squeeze of juice.
Mix everything until it is a smooth mixture.
Spoon one and a half tea spoons of the mix into the cake
cases.
Bake in the oven for 10-15 mins.
While they are cooking, make the icing by whisking the
butter in a bowl. Then add the icing sugar and mix.
Add the zest if any remaining lemon zest and however
much of the rest of lemon juice. (depending how zingy
you want them to be)
Put the cakes on a cooling rack to cool. When they have
finished cooling, pipe or spread the icing in to the
cakes.
You could add a lemon flavour sweet or a small pice of
chopped up lemon if wanted. And there you have it, one
batch of delicious Zingy lemon cupcakes ready to take to
a party or picnic or just to put in a box to save for
another day. Make sure you have eaten them in a week or
they won't taste as good as they are meant to.
