    Concur with reviews below - 1st time I made them, they came out a bit dense, more like a corn muffin texture. Just made them again this week - mixed the sugar & butter - than add the eggs. Sifted the dry ingredients & I added the juice of one lemon to the mix. Came out way better. If you are going to add the blueberries (I did not have any 2nd time so omitted I would add to the batter Comments I received was they would have like to have blueberries throughout the cupcake not just on top.

    Per below, I had the same problems. The cupcake was much to dense, and the frosting was yummy. Recipe needs some work.

    This cupcake is fantastic and after reading several other reviews, I must say that I may also try a different approach to the method of combining the ingredients because I will definitely make these again. Starting off with butter and eggs in the mixer did not go so well - very lumpy - so I will try creaming the butter and sugar together first as @darcinicki had suggested. After all ingredients were in the mixer I still detected small bits of butter in the batter but a few more minutes on high speed eliminated that and the batter turned out just fine. Next time I will also flour only half of the blueberries (I used an 8oz container as the floured blueberries stayed on top of the cupcake no matter how much I pushed them down into each cupcake, plus I wanted to place a blueberry on top for decoration and had to scrub the flour off the unused blueberries. The frosting is very good but made more than I needed. I also managed to get 18 cupcakes vs. 12 as the recipe suggests.

    Recipe indicates mixing butter and eggs, this doesn't make sense. Cupcakes came out too dry. Frosting was very good though.

    Love the concept but not the execution. The frosting is to die for and really makes the recipe. The batter recipe is very odd in the order in which you combine the batter. The texture was more like a dry pound cake or muffin, which I think was a result of the poor recipe instructions. Next time I will cream the butter and sugar, add the liquids, then the dry ingredients, and see how that works. Also, I'd fold in the blueberries. Tossing them in flour to keep them suspended seems a waste when you just place them on top.

    Very tasty - but I think I messed up, the cupcakes seemed -heavy and the texture was not quite right. They were gone in one sitting with the family. Will make them again.

    I saw this episode of Sunday Brunch and was inspired! These cupcakes were sooo delicious!! The frosting was a not the right consistency for me, but still very tasty. I would also recommend folding the bluberries in, instead of "dropping them in". Lemon and blueberry was a great combination! Yumm!!!

    This cupcake was very good! My Dad who loves blueberry and lemon loved them for his birthday! Next time I think I will add even a little more zest to the batter (it also could have been low quality lemons on my end. My oven needed a little less time than 18 min. for them to be done as well! Thank you so much for sharing your recipe. Y'all are so cute!
