Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325ºF (170ºC).
- In a medium bowl, cream the butter and slowly add the sugar. Beat until light and fluffy.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing until incorporated.
- Sift the flour and baking powder into the sugar mixture. Add salt and mix until just combined.
- Add the vanilla, milk, and lemon juice, and mix until incorporated.
- Scoop mixture into a lined cupcake tin about ¾ full.
- Bake 12-15 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out cleanly from the center of the cupcakes. Let cupcakes cool.
- Prepare the lemon curd by whisking the yolks and sugar in a heatproof bowl over a pot of simmering water.
- Once the sugar is dissolved, add the lemon juice and zest. Stir until the mixture thickens, about 10 minutes.
- Once the curd coats the back of a spoon, add the butter and stir until melted.
- Remove from the heat, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate. Make sure the cling film touches the surface of the curd so that a film doesn't form on top.
- Prepare the frosting by whisking the egg whites and sugar in a heatproof bowl over simmering water until it thickens and the sugar dissolves completely. Tempering the eggs will ensure the frosting is food safe without being baked.
- Remove from the heat, add the cream of tartar, and beat about 10 minutes until soft peaks form.
- Using a piping tip or a knife, cut a hole into the top of the cupcakes and press down to make a well for the curd.
- Add lemon curd into the cupcakes and frost them with the meringue.
- Torch the frosting or carefully broil for about 3 to 4 minutes. Be sure that you use foil cupcake liners if broiling!
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- Combine lemon juice, eggs, sugar, and lemon zest for lemon curd in a small saucepan over low heat. Cook, whisking constantly, until thick enough to coat the back of a spatula or spoon, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and strain through a sieve into a bowl. Stir in butter until melted; set aside.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
- Sift flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt for cupcakes into a large bowl. Pour milk, oil, vanilla extract, and egg onto the dry mixture. Mix thoroughly with an electric mixer of by hand. Pour in hot water and mix to combine; batter will be thin. Spoon batter into the prepared muffin liners, filling about 3/4 full.
- Bake in the preheated oven until tops spring back when lightly pressed, 15 to 18 minutes. Cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool, about 20 minutes.
- Core each cupcake using either a corer or a knife. Spoon in lemon curd.
- Pour sugar and egg whites into a large bowl. Place the bowl over a saucepan or pot of simmering water. Whisk constantly until sugar is dissolved and egg whites are warm, to between 120 and 140 degrees F (49 to 60 degrees C) on a thermometer, 4 to 6 minutes. Remove from the heat.
- Mix in lemon juice and whip at high speed until stiff peaks form. Pipe meringue onto the cupcakes.
- Set an oven rack about 10 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.
