These blackberry - lime cupcakes are tender, full of berries and a delicious creamy lime frosting. It´s a party in your mouth.

The weekend is here and we can indulge a little. These cupcakes aside from being cute, are so delicious and full of flavor, your family and friends are going to love them. I took them to a meetting last week, and they were gone in a whiff. Blackberries and lime go together so well, even though they´re both tart.

I used the last frozen blackberries I had, hoping we'll have more this year. I like to coat them with  flour, so they don´t go to the bottom of each muffin tin.

Once you add the liquid ingredients to the flour, fold gently as to not break the berries.

Let the cupcakes cool for 5 minutes in the pan before putting them on a rack to cool completely. And while this cools, let´s make the frosting.

It would not be a cupcake if it didn´t have a delicious frosting. This time I made a lime cream cheese frosting.

As you can see, I'm not very good at decorating. I used a spatula to decorate these cupcakes, but if you like, you can add it to a piping bag and frost your cupackes 🙂.
