Ingredients

  • 2 ounces cake flour (about 1/2 cup)
  • 3/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 3/4 cup egg whites (about 5 large eggs)
  • 3/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 teaspoons grated lemon rind

Instructions

  4. Beat egg whites, cream of tartar, and salt with a mixer at high speed until frothy. Add 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time, beating until stiff peaks form. Sprinkle flour mixture over egg white mixture, 1/4 cup at a time; fold in after each addition. Fold in vanilla and rind. Divide batter evenly among prepared muffin cups.
  5. Bake at 350 ° for 18 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove from pan; cool completely on a wire rack.

Add milk and lemon juice; beat until spreading consistency. Spread 2 tablespoons lemon frosting over each cupcake. Garnish with fresh raspberries, if desired.
