WHITE CHOCOLATE STRAWBERRY LEMONADE CUPCAKE
I had invited a bunch of people over to come see my new house recently. I thought it would be nice to have a yummy little baked good offering for them all. Strawberries are officially in season here in Florida so I got the idea for these cupcakes. I love lemon desserts, and I love my lemon cake recipe, so I combined it all into...

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350'F
- 2. For Lemon Cake: In a mixing bowl sift together flour, salt, baking soda, baking powder. Whisk them together and set aside.
- 3. Cream butter with an electric mixer. Add sugar to butter gradually, continue beating until sugar is completely beaten with butter into a paste. Beat the butter paste until it is super fluffy and light.
- 4. Add whole eggs and egg yolks to the sugar butter paste one at a time completely incorporating each egg.
- 5. Add vanilla extract and lemon zest to butter mixture. Completely incorporate.
- 6. Add lemon juice to butter mixture and beat slowly until completely incorporated. Side note: The mixture will look curdled after you add the lemon juice. This is normal, it'll smooth out when you get to the dry ingredients.
- 7. Add your dry ingredients in three additions. Add your milk in two additions in between adding your dry ingredients.
- 8. Beat down sides of bowl and beat on high for 20 seconds.
- 9. Pour batter out into lined cupcake pans. Bake for 21 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- 10. For White Chocolate Strawberry Cheese: In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar and vanilla together
- 11. Add melted white chocolate to the cream cheese mixture and blend completely. Side note: Be sure the white chocolate is cooled, but not hardening. If the chocolate is scalding it will cook the cream cheese! The white chocolate should be slightly warm to the touch.
- 12. Once chocolate is completely blended into cream cheese mixture, add strawberry syrup. Blend loosely, this will give the mixture a ribbon of syrup and keep it from turning pink entirely.
- 13. For Strawberry Butter Cream Frosting: Blend all that goodness together. Add the food coloring as needed to adjust the color to the pink your prefer.
- 14. Assembly: Once cup cake are cooled core the cupcakes and scoop cheese cake filling into each cake. They will take about a half of a tablespoon each.
- 15. Frost with butter cream frosting. Garnish as desired and chill before serving.
