If you're looking for a dope lemon cake/cupcake recipe, you're in the right place. I created this recipe to go with my last post, Strawberry White Chocolate Ganache Frosting. This lemon cake isn't tart or dense. It's light, fluffy and SO spring. I wish I was eating this right now. But instead we decided to be stupid and Start Whole 30 today. So, do me a favor and make these and eat 3 for me. Let's make lemon cupcakes together. 
In a bowl put 2 1/2 cups flour
Picture
2 cups sugar
Picture
3 tsp Baking Powder
Picture
and 1 tsp Salt. (if you want to add zest from 1 lemon, do it now)
Picture
Whisk it all up
Picture
In a mixer bowl add 1/2 cup vegetable oil
Picture
1 cup of milk and 2 eggs
Picture
1 tsp vanilla (mine is vanilla bean so don't mind the speckles)
Picture
Mix on medium until combined
Picture
Pour in your dry ingredients and mix on low until fully incorporated.
Picture
(don't mind the blobs... I added candied lemon peel to my batter but I didn't like it so ignore)
Picture
Now, slowly stir in either 1 cup of lemon juice OR 1/2 cup lemon juice and 1/2 cup water depending on how bright you want the lemon flavor to be. I did 1/2 and 1/2 and really liked it that way.

Picture
Fill your tins 2/3 full and bake for 18  minutes at 350.
Picture
Cool for 2 minutes in the tin and then completely on a wire rack.
Picture
Top with Strawberry White Chocolate Ganache Frosting.
