I made these cupcakes with raspberry filling. I then topped them with the lemon buttercream frosting. They are not sweet & have the right amount of tartness to them to give it the perfect balance. My husband could not stop raving about them. I took a few to work & they wanted to know when I was going to make more. Excellent cupcakes!

Made these for Mothers Day. They were so moist and yummy. I filled them with the Raspberry filling and topped with the lemon buttercream. Even my kids loved them and they are tough customers!
