Staggering and heavenly, these White Chocolate Blueberry Cupcakes are an absolute necessity heat for blueberry darlings!
I'm interested: Do you have a most loved berry? I sincerely adore them all, yet on the off chance that I needed to pick, I figure it would be blueberries. Particularly for heating! They can without much of a stretch be fused into an assortment of plans (hi flapjacks, biscuits, and pie) and I cherish how sweet and succulent they become after a speedy spell in the broiler.
One of my Summer objectives – notwithstanding heating blueberry everything – is to build up the white chocolate segment on this site. That implies you will see significantly progressively delicious white chocolate plans around here! I'm supposing white chocolate raspberry fudge, white chocolate lemon brownies, and obviously: White chocolate and blueberry cupcakes!
Any other person energized for this white chocolate talk?! My sweet tooth is throbbing as of now.
One of the (many) things I adore about this formula is that it isn't overwhelmingly lemony. Try not to misunderstand me – I adore lemon and blueberry as much as the following lady. In any case, I truly needed the white chocolate to sparkle here, so I was exceptionally preservationist with the lemon, including only a teaspoon of pizzazz in the cupcake hitter. I discover this sum superbly features the blueberries without overwhelming the sensitive white chocolate season. Upon first nibble, you'll realize what I mean. It's the ideal marriage of flavors!

For the White Chocolate Buttercream:
- 2 sticks (8 ounces) unsalted butter, VERY soft
- 2 and 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons full-fat sour cream
- 1 tablespoon whole milk

- Instructions
- For the Blueberry Cupcakes:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees (F). Line 2 cupcake tins with paper liners; set aside.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or in a large bowl using a handheld electric mixer, beat the butter, vanilla, sugar, and lemon zest on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
- Add in the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- On low speed, beat in the sour cream, then the milk. Turn mixer off.
- Add in 3 and 1/4 cups of the cake flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Use a fork to lightly toss the dry ingredients together. Using a rubber spatula, gently fold the dry ingredients into the batter, mixing just until combined. Be sure not to over mix here or your cupcakes will be dense! Set aside.
- In a small bowl combine the blueberries with the remaining cake flour and toss to coat. Gently fold the blueberries into the batter, stirring just until combined.
- Spoon batter into prepared cupcake tins (filling each mold 3/4 of the way - not more or they'll overflow).
- Bake one pan at a time, for 18-21 minutes, or until a cupcake tester inserted in the center of a cupcake comes out clean, or with just a few moist crumbs attached. Cool completely before frosting.
For the White Chocolate Buttercream:
- In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, or in a large bowl using a handheld electric mixer, beat the butter on medium-speed until completely smooth.
- Reduce the mixer speed to low and gradually add the confectioners sugar, no more than a 1/2 cup at a time. Once all of the sugar has been incorporated, add in the salt, sour cream and milk.
- Add in the white chocolate and beat smooth. Once all of the ingredients have been incorporated, increase the speed to medium-high and beat for a full minute. This step helps the frosting get nice and fluffy. If the frosting appears too thin, add a little confectioners' sugar, one tablespoon at a time; if the frosting appears too thick, add a little more milk, one tablespoon at time.
For the Blueberry Drizzle:
- In a small saucepan combine the blueberries and the lemon juice; bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook, stirring constantly and gently smashing the blueberries smooth, until thickened into a deep, dark blueberry reduction, about 12 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Place a fine-mesh strainer over a small bowl and push the puree though, leaving any skin/large chunks behind. Allow mixture to cool completely before using.
