Lemon Creme Cupcakes
I love to bake. I love to get in the kitchen and experiment with cakes and cookies, but I also love to take shortcuts when I can. I love these Lemon Creme Cupcakes because they have all of the love of a homemade treat with the help of store bought ingredients.
I was speechless when I was invited to attend Baking with Betty in August at General Mills in Minneapolis. I am still trying to get my brain to grasp that one. I have my plane ticket, and can’t wait to go! Who knows what fun info I will come back with for you guys! I have never been that far north! That is almost to Canada in my book! 😉
Now, back to these little beauties! They made me speechless. I forgot about the recipe. I dug it out of my cabinet of cookbooks, and recipes earlier today. See, I thought I was going to organize it. Instead, I ended up baking…with betty none the less! 🙂 These are so good. I will have to come hunt you down if you don’t try them!

Tip!
You can get creative with these and use different flavored cake mixes, or flavor the cream cheese filling! Yum!
Once they are baked it tastes like a little bite of cheese cake in the center! YUM!
