My niece Alyssa made these cupcakes while I visiting. I thought they were very worthy of the blog.
Cupcakes
1 pkg. Lemon Jello (3 oz. pkg.)
1 White Cake Mix
1 pkg. Instant Cheesecake pudding & pie filling mix (4 serving size)
1 1/4 C Lemonade
4 Eggs
1/3 C Oil
1 t. Vanilla
Preheat Oven to 350. Set aside 2 t. Lemon Jello mix for frosting. In a mixing bowl beat the remaining jello, cake mix, pudding mix, lemonade, eggs, oil, and vanilla. Spoon batter into muffin tins lined with cupcake papers. Fill about 2/3's full. Bake for 18-20 minutes. Cool!
Cream Cheese Frosting
1 pkg. Cream Cheese (8 oz.)
1/2 C. Butter
2 t. Vanilla
5 1/2 - 6 C Powder Sugar
Allow Cream Cheese and butter to sit at roomn temperature for 30 minutes. In a large mixing bowl, mix butter, cream cheese and vanilla until fluffy. Gradually beat in powder sugar and remaining 2 t Lemon pudding mix.
Top with Lemon Zest!

I was searching for a lemon cupcake recipe to try for my daughters baby shower to be in July. They look beautiful and the recipe sounds easy yet tasty. Any hints on creating a firm frosting that will hold up for the outside summer shower? Also what technique did you use to first cupcakes? Just. Knife or spatula?
