Lemon Cupcake Recipe

An easy free lemon cupcake recipe for you to delight your family with at home

I have only just now baked these and they smell delicious. Warm and lemony. Once they have warmed and I have Iced them, we will give a taste verdict......

Well ... everyone came back for seconds, except for Neil - he had 3 :-)

Delicious with a definite lemon flavor.

A lemon cake is ideal for a luncheon or afternoon tea. It is a refreshing flavor and leaves one satisfied but not overly.

And if you have home grown lemons all the better.
