These cupcakes taste WONDERFUL! The batch makes 10, but you’ll want more — I recommend doubling the ingredients to make 20 or more. Soft, fluffy, and moist, these cupcakes melt in your mouth with bursts of fresh strawberry flavor and a faint lemon taste. Add a bit more lemon juice to the frosting if you want a stronger lemonade flavor. Perfect for summer!
