Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon lime zest
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup fresh blackberries (plus extra for topping)
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon lime zest for garnish
  • Lime slices for garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a cupcake tin with paper liners.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • In a large bowl, beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  • Mix in the vanilla extract, lime zest, and milk until fully combined.
  • Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  • Fold in the fresh blackberries.
  • Fill each cupcake liner about 2/3 full with batter. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • While the cupcakes are baking, prepare the cream cheese filling by beating the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and lime juice until smooth.
  • Once cupcakes are cool, core the center of each cupcake and fill with the cream cheese mixture.
  • Frost with your choice of frosting and top with extra blackberries, lime zest, and a slice of lime.
  • Garnish with lime zest and fresh blackberries before serving.

Notes

  • For a fun twist, use a lime-flavored frosting or whipped cream on top of the cupcakes.
  • Make sure the cupcakes are completely cool before filling with the cream cheese mixture.
  • Garnish with additional blackberries or a dusting of powdered sugar for extra flair.
