These are moist and scumptious! Wonderful lemon flavor. I iced them with a tradional buttercream icing and the 2nd time, left them plain. If you like lemon, you will like these! Also- be sure to buy a quality yogurt.

I really liked the cupcakes. But you should wait 10 minutes to let them cool. I couldn't so two of the fell apart,so I had to eat them 
.I used lime juice instead of lemon juice and they turned out great. Thanks for posting this.

These are SOOOO good. I can't stop saying MMMMMM. Very lemony flavor, and it tastes fresh. I iced them with cream cheese icing with a little lemon extract and a couple drops yellow food coloring. These are going in my 'Six Stars' cookbook! Thank you!

The flavour was really good and the top was excellent. I didn't add the lemon extract and instead added the juice of 1.5 lemons. I found that the butter was way too much for the cake and next time I'll reduce it to 1/4 cup and add some milk instead. Thanks!
