Blackberry Cupcakes

Cupcakes are sweet and easy to make, simple to decorate, and perfect for any occasion. Making cupcakes is also an event that can get the children involved. They are certainly the simplest of all cakes to make, but once carefully decorated, they can become a center piece for any celebration. Please join me to make these simple blackberry cupcakes with easy frosting.

Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 tps baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup butter softened
1/4 cup chia seeds gel (for each 1 tsp of chia seeds, add with 1/4 cup water)
1 cup sugar
3 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 cup fresh blackberries
Icing:
1 1/2 cups  confectioner's sugar
3 tbs sour cream

Directions:
Preheat oven to 375°. Put paper liners into a 12 cup muffin pan.
Sift the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and 1/4 tsp salt into a mixing bowl.
Using an electric mixer, in another large mixing bowl, beat eggs, butter, chia seeds gel and sugar. Add flour mixture and vanilla. Beat together until smooth. Stir in blackberries. Spoon the batter into the paper liners (3/4 full). Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until golden and firm to the touch.

To make the icing, sift the confectioner's sugar into a bowl and stir in the sour cream. Spoon a little of the icing on top of each cupcake.
