LEMON-BLUEBERRY CUPCAKES WITH BLUEBERRY-LEMON BUTTERCREAM FROSTING

Steps:

• Combine frozen blueberries, sugar, and lemon juice for jam in a small pot over medium heat; bring to a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until mixture has reduced and thickened, about 12 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• Pour mixture through a fine mesh sieve, pressing solids to extract as much jam as possible; you should have approximately 1/4 cup. Discard any solids and refrigerate jam until completely cool, at least 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 18 muffin cups with paper liners.
• Whisk flour, baking powder, and salt for cupcakes together in a small bowl.
• Cream sugar and butter together in a large bowl until light and fluffy. Mix in lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla until combined. Add flour mixture in 2 batches, alternating with buttermilk, beating batter just until combined after each addition; batter will be somewhat thick.
• Place frozen blueberries in a small bowl and toss with flour until coated. Add to the batter and fold to incorporate. Spoon batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each one 3/4 full.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Check to see if a toothpick inserted into the centers comes out clean, and continue to bake, if needed, for 4 to 8 more minutes. Cool in the pans for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely, about 20 minutes more.
• While the cupcakes are cooling, remove blueberry jam from the refrigerator. Measure out 1/4 cup for the frosting and reserve any extra for another use.
• Beat butter for frosting in a large bowl until creamy and smooth. Add 1 cup powdered sugar, lemon zest, lemon juice, and salt; beat until thoroughly combined. Add 1/4 cup blueberry jam and mix until combined. Add 1 cup powdered sugar and mix until smooth. Repeat with remaining 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar. Add heavy cream and beat until frosting is smooth and fluffy, 1 to 2 minutes more.
• Frost cooled cupcakes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place 24 paper baking cups in two (12-cup) muffin pans. Set aside.
• Beat butter and cream cheese with a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment at medium speed until creamy, about 1 minute. Gradually add sugar and beat until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating just until blended after each addition. Beat in vanilla, lemon juice, and lemon zest.
• Whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a bowl. Gradually add flour mixture to butter mixture alternately with sour cream on low speed, beating just until blended after each addition, beginning and ending with flour mixture. Gently fold in blueberries. Spoon or scoop batter into prepared baking cups, filling each about 2/3 full (about 1/4 cup batter for each).
• Bake in the preheated oven until a wooden pick inserted in the centers comes out clean, 22 to 25 minutes. Cool in pans on wire racks for 5 minutes. Remove from pans to wire racks and cool completely, about 30 minutes.
• For the frosting beat cream cheese and butter with a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment at medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Reduce speed to low and gradually add powdered sugar and beat well. Beat in zest and 1 teaspoon lemon juice. Increase speed to medium-high and beat until light and fluffy, adding 1 teaspoon lemon juice if needed to reach desired consistency. Pipe or spread frosting onto cupcakes.
