I modify the recipe from my favorite vanilla cupcake recipe. The taste actually turn out to be very different. It is very flavorful in fact. I added in some lemon juice and replace milk with buttermilk. However the texture was different, it is now more dense and crumbly compared to the original. I quite like it, goes well with a cup of tea!

Here’s the receipe.

5. Add in 1 egg at a time. Beating well each time.
6. Add the flour and milk mixture in 3 alterante parts.

Yes, I had leftover of buttermilk. So found this delicious recipe from Nosh With Me. Her original was strawberry buttermilk cake. I baked them into cupcakes instead. But I think I was too generous with the blueberries, throw in the whole packet. Hence can’t really taste the cake.
