Lemon Curd Cupcakes


Ingredients (Makes 30):
* 240g caster sugar
* 240g unsalted butter
* 240g self raising flour
* 4 eggs
* Zest of 2 lemons
* Half a lemon's juice
* Half a jar of lemon curd
* Icing sugar

Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 200c. Pop the sugar in a large bowl and add the butter in small chunks, using a electric whisk to mix until combined. Sift in the flour, add the eggs and mix together until fully combined. Add the lemon zest and lemon juice and mix together.

Line a baking tray with cupcake cases. Spoon a teaspoon of the cake mixture into the case, make a little well using the end of the teaspoon, and then add half a teaspoon of lemon curd. Top this with another teaspoon of cake mixture, and smooth over so the curd is all covered. Repeat this until all are done (we had to do several batches as we made so many!)

Bake for 15 minutes, until the tops are pale golden brown. Once cooled, dust with a little icing sugar.
