Method

- To make Easter cupcakes, first preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit or 180 degrees Celsius and line the muffin tins with cupcake liners.

- Then take a bowl and sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt.

- Now, in a large bowl, cream together the sugar and butter with an electric or hand blender until creamy.

- Add the eggs one by one and beat well. Then add the lemon juice and mix well.

- Now add 1/3 of the flour mixture. When it is almost combined, add half of the buttermilk, then the remaining 1/3 of the flour, and then the buttermilk. Mix in the last of the flour mixture and continue beating until a smooth batter is formed.

- Pour this batter evenly among the prepared muffin tins. Fill them about 2/3 full. Bake the cupcakes for about 15 to 18 minutes.

- To check, insert a toothpick. If it comes out clean, let the cupcakes cool.

- To make buttercream frosting, put the butter in a bowl and beat until light and fluffy. Then add 3 cups of powdered sugar and beat again.

- Now add 3 tablespoons of whipped cream and a pinch of salt. Continue beating until the frosting is light.

- Once the frosting is ready, divide it into two parts. Add green food color to one and brown food color to the other and fill them into 2 separate piping bags.

- Create a grass-like design on top of the cupcakes with the green frosting, then make a nest-like shape on top of it with the brown frosting. Place some edible colorful eggs on top. Let it set. Your Easter special cupcakes are ready.
