This week, I asked Ashley about her favorite flavors. She said banana, strawberry, and cherry. Being burnt out on strawberries and bananas, I decided to spring for cherry. I myself have been in a lime mood lately, though I'm not sure why. I ended up settling on a new idea for cherry and lime cupcakes. Being really nervous about just making up a recipe off the top of my head, I decided to use the Perfect Party Cake as a base (found here). I halved the recipe, used limes instead of lemons, and added about 1/3 cup of lime juice and cherry puree, which ended up not quite being enough. One day I will learn to not be so nervous about adding ingredients!
Overall, though the cherry flavor was quite subtle, I thought these came out really well. They were really tender and moist.
