lemon meringue cupcakes

when i asked d what he wanted me to bake him last week, the enthusiasm of his answer - "lemon meringue cupcakes!!!" left me with no choice but to give in. i had been putting off baking them, knowing the martha stewart recipe wasn't going to be easy, and while my fears were correct, these cupcakes really are fun and delicious... the recipe involves a lot of lemons -zesting, juicing (boyfriends are the best for this) and a lot of using the electric mixer. we chose to fill the cakes with the curd and used a mini cigar lighter to torch the meringue : ) a lovely treat to enjoy over the weekend!
