Yield
1 doz.en cupcakes
PREHEAT oven to 350°F. Line a muffin tin with 12 paper liners.
CHOP 2 Tbsp. of Lavender Flowers. In a medium bowl, combine the flowers with cake flour, baking powder, and Himalayan Fine Mineral Salt.
IN a large bowl, beat together butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time; allowing the first egg to blend in before adding the second. Mix in Madagascar Pure Vanilla Extract and lemon zest.
MIX the flour mixture into the butter mixture; alternating with the milk. Stir only until combined—do not over mix.
FILL cupcake liners with batter (about 2/3 full for each cupcake).
BAKE for 25-30 mins., or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean. Cool briefly, then move cupcakes to a wire rack to finish cooling.
GENTLY use a spoon to press a small indent into the top of each cupcake. Fill each indent with 1 Tbsp. of lemon curd. Mix honey into the cream cheese frosting (you may color the frosting at this point if desired) and pipe onto each cupcake. Garnish with remaining Lavender Flowers and Lemon Sugar.
