Feeling Blue - Blueberry Lemonade Cupcakes - Recipe

For the cupcakes:
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 1/4 cups granulated sugar
1 egg
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1/4 cup sour cream
1/4 cup milk
4 tbsp. frozen lemonade concentrate, thawed
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp. baking powder
2 cups fresh/frozen blueberries

1. Preheat the oven to 350F. In a large bowl, cream the butter and sugar until smooth and creamy. Beat in the egg until just combined. Add vanilla, sour cream, milk and lemonade concentrate and beat until just combined. In a medium bowl, combine flour, and baking powder, and stir until well combined. Slowly add flour mixture to wet ingredients and beat on low speed until just combined. Gently fold in the blueberries until evenly dispersed.
