- Divide the mixture between the muffin tins, smooth the tops and bake in the oven for 30-35 minutes until risen to a dome and firm to the touch.
- As soon as the muffins are cool enough to handle, turn them onto a wire rack. Inject each one generously through the side with the Surprise Inside Zingy Lemon Cupcake Centre.
- To decorate, while the muffins are still warm, put the sugar on a plate.
- Working on one muffin at a time, brush all over with melted butter and roll in the sugar to coat
- Put back on the wire rack. Your cakes are now ready to serve warm or allow to cool completely.
