But I still added them after mixing in the flour as indicated in the recipe. I think this made the cupcakes too tough, and next time (if there is one, with this or another berry) I will add the berries with the liquid ingredients to prevent over-mixing the flour. Though the denseness could have been from the batter sitting around waiting for batch 2 and 2.5.<\/p>\n<p>I also used the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.beantownbaker.com\/2012\/01\/my-go-to-cream-cheese-frosting.html\">cream cheese frosting<\/a> recommended in the cupcake recipe. Used salted butter, omitted the vanilla and added juice and zest of one lemon. I used way less sugar, maybe only a cup or 1.5 cups, until it was as sweet as I wanted it to be. This makes the frosting a little looser, but I just stored the cupcakes in the fridge until party time.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"blueberry cupcake\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/leighadactyl\/20479919656\/in\/dateposted\/\" data-flickr-embed=\"true\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/farm1.staticflickr.com\/415\/20479919656_71b94d8a1b.jpg\" alt=\"blueberry cupcake\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>C is turning 3!
