With my citrus-laden refrigerator, lemon cupcakes seemed an excellent way to use up some of my supply. I used a lemon layer cake recipe and converted it to cupcakes (the two-layer cake yielded 30 cupcakes). Using a paring knife, I cut small holes into each cupcake and filled each cupcake with lemon curd (I don't have tips for my pastry bag, so in cutting holes in each cupcake, it's easy to squeeze lemon curd through a hole in a corner of a lemon-curd-filled-Ziploc into each cupcake). Topped with lemon buttercream frosting and garnished with candied lemon peel. Definitely good reviews.
