Lemon Curd and Raspberry Filled Cupcakes



This recipe was very "Sandra Lee".....but it was good!! I had some lemon curd and wanted to do something fun with it.

INGREDIENTS

Lemon Cake Mix (and ingredients required to make the mix)
Lemon Frosting
Lemon Curd
Raspberry Preserves

DIRECTIONS

Baked your lemon cake mix in cupcake form as directed by the box.

While they are baking, mix together the lemon curd and raspberry preserves to suit your taste. You are going to need more raspberry preserves than lemon curd since the lemon curd is very powerful.

One the cupcakes have cooled use the cone method (cut out a cone shape from the top, cut off the point of the cone, stuff the hole with filling, then put the top back on) fill them with the mixture of lemon curd and raspberry preserves.

Frost the cupcakes (this will also cover up and "uglies" from the coning).

**You need to keep these in the refrigerator because of the lemon curd.
