Meyer Lemon Rosemary Cupcakes
It is looking a lot like Spring guys! Leaving work at 6.30pm and it’s not pitch black out is very promising and even better when the weather is in the 30s!! That’s spring in Upstate NY!!
So to celebrate, I am doing all things lemons. To be specific, meyer lemons for now until I finish my enormous haul I procured (the story of that is here) recently. I promise I have one last recipe after these meyer lemon rosemary cupcakes. These cupcakes are just to die for though. I love the combination of sweet tart lemons and fresh herby aroma of rosemary.
This is my first time creating a dessert recipe with fresh herbs. Now I just want to put them in everything. I started with a fresh lemon cupcake which I infused with rosemary scented milk and a bit of fresh rosemary. The cupcake bakes soft, moist and delicious. I decided to top them with a meyer lemon buttercream to close the deal. I bet you can’t wait to try them! If you are a lemon fan, it does not get better than this! I am sharing this recipe over on the KitchenAid blog today, so hop over and get it! You are going to love these spring cupcakes, trust me!
Before I leave, I just wanted to say thank you friends for all the wishes on Monday about my presentation. It went great and we are all in agreement for this Fall. Let’s keep our fingers crossed that it really does happen because folks I am tired of being in school. For now…let’s eat more cupcakes!!
Don’t forget to grab the recipe HERE!!
Yes, always eat more cupcakes! These look delish!
I knew you would be on board 🙂
Don’t you love that 40° is the new 75°? And with these cupcakes by my side, even 30° would leave me happy 🙂
40 is really the new 75!! After the winter we had, yeah I am so excited for 40!
This is such an interesting flavor combination!
Thanks 🙂
These cupcakes are so pretty and just scream spring! 🙂
Thanks Matea!
I am loving all of your lemon recipes! These cupcakes are simply stunning. So festive for spring!
Thanks Jen!
I know! I’m so happy about Daylights Savings (the extra hour of sunlight part 🙂 ) and the warmer temps! I am so ready for spring and all things lemon and bright colors. I can’t wait to trade out flats for my boots, and lemon cupcakes for hot cocoa. These are gorgeous Z, perfect for welcoming spring!
I cannot wait for flats either!! Just waiting for all the mud to go away!
I am glad to hear that your presentation went well. Cupcakes are a great way to celebrate almost being done with school! I’m a huge fan of lemon and would love one of these right now!
Yay! I’m so happy for you and there’s a reason to eat more cupcakes. Love these lemony cupcakes 🙂
These are sooo fantastic. I beyond excited about the changes in weather around my part too. Can you believe it has been in the 40s and 50s here in Chicago for the last few days? AND it is supposed to last into next week. I feel it coming and these are perfect for celebrating.
I still can’t believe it is this early and Spring is already here!!
These look totally amazing! And definitely loving the extra light over here too, though I’m not getting too ahead of myself and pulling out the flip flips just yet 🙂
Glad your presentation went well! I haven’t tried a dessert with fresh herbs, but lemon and rosemary sound like a wonderful combination 🙂
It was my first time too and loved it!!
These sound divine. I love that you infused the Rosemary into the milk. That is such a great way to really being out the flavors without being overwhelming. When are we getting that technology that lets us reach through our screens and grab food?
Hahha we need that technology seriously!!
Beautiful cupcakes, love Meyer lemons! Great for celebration! So glad the weather is finally warming up. Heading to check the recipe!
Thanks Mira!
