Set aside.                In a large measuring cup or bowl combine sour cream,        milk, vanilla, and egg whites; mix well to combine. Set        aside.                In a small bowl combine sugar and lemon zest. Using your        fingertips, rub the zest IN to the sugar, until fragrant        and well combined.                In a large bowl or stand mixer fitted with the paddle        attachment beat melted butter and sugar on medium speed        until well combined; about 2 minutes.                Slowly add the flour mixture to the butter/sugar        combination, beating until just combined. Add in sour        cream/milk/egg combo and beat on low until *just        combined. Over-mixing will result in a dryer/denser        cake.                Divide the cupcake batter evenly into the 12 molds, then        place the pan in the oven. Bake for about 16 minutes, or        until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake        comes out clean. Allow cupcakes to cool completely        before topping with frosting.                FOR THE BLACKBERRY BUTTERCREAM: Combine the blackberries        and lemon juice in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer        over medium heat, and stir constantly until blackberries        have become soft enough to mash effortlessly.; about 6-7        minutes It will look like blackberry jam. Once the        mixture can coat a spoon (you will have about 1/4 cup of        blackberry puree) remove from heat. Place a fine-mesh        strainer over a small bowl and push the puree though,        leaving any seeds/large chunks behind. Allow mixture to        cool completely before using.                WHEN READY TO MAKE BUTTERCREAM: Place soft butter in the        body of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment;        beat butter on medium-speed until completely smooth,        scraping down the sides when needed; about 2 minutes.        Add in the blackberry puree and beat until completely        combined, scraping down the sides of the bowl if needed.        Add in the confectioners sugar, one cup at a time, on        low speed. Once all of the sugar has been added, add in        salt then increase speed to medium-high and beat for 2        full minutes. Ice cupcakes as desired.                Cupcakes can be made up to 6 hours ahead of time, but be        sure to store in the fridge and bring to room        temperature 30 minutes before serving.                NOTE: For a stronger lemon taste, add 1 or 2 teaspoons        of lemon juice to the batter. To do this, quickly stir        it in right at the end, mixing just until combined.                by Ashley Manila                RECIPE FROM: https://bakerbynature.com                Uncle Dirty Dave's Archives               MMMMM              ...
