This will be my last post for about a week. Me, Les and Susie will be going on a trip! We're going to Olympic National Park in Washington. We leave on Wednesday night. I don't have a laptop so I cannot blog on the road, but make sure you check out Leslie's pics for daily updates.
Les made these cupcakes for my birthday last month! So nice, yah!! I loved um. They were really moist. Thanks Les! And thanks for the recipe.
CAKE 1 Box lemon cake mix 1 C sour cream 3 eggs 1/4 C oil 1/4 C water 1 box lemon instant pudding 1/4 C sugar 2C fresh blueberries
STREUSEL TOPPING 1/4 C white sugar 1/4 C brown sugar 1C all-purpose flour 1 1/2 t cinnamon 1/2 C unsalted butter, chilled
Directions:
For Cake:
Pre heat oven to 350 degrees. Blend all cake ingredients together (EXCEPT BLUEBERRIES) until smooth. When batter is combined, gently fold in blueberries.
For streusel:
Combine sugars, flour and cinnamon in a bowl. Cut in chilled butter with a pastry blender until mixture resemble coarse crumbs. You can also use and electric mixer with a paddle attachment. note from Les*you will have some extra streusel--keep in freezer for another time!
Assemble and bake:
Spread half of the batter in the prepared cupcake cups. Sprinkle with a layer of the streusel. Top with remaining batter, then top with another layer of streusel. Bake for approximately 25-30 minutes. Cake will be done when golden brown (*mines actually didn't brown so I turned the broiler on and cheated...just don't leave it in too long, it will burn! fast!) and a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool and enjoy!
Here I am being surprised when my coworkers gathered to sing "Happy Birthday"!
