- First, you're gonna make some orange curd. Just whisk together the melted butter, orange and lemon juice, orange zest, 1/4 cup + 2 tbsp of sugar, an egg, and an egg yolk in a bowl over a double boiler, and cook for 15 minutes, stirring every 3 minutes.
- Once the curd is nice and thick, pour it into a seperate bowl to cool. When it's cool, cover it and move it to the fridge while you make the cupcakes.
- For the cupcakes, start by preheating your oven to 350.
- Whisk the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl.
- Cream together the sugar and butter for 2-3 minutes on medium in a stand mixer.
- Mix together the yogurt and milk in a small bowl until combined.
- Mix the eggs one at a time into the sugar/butter, then mix in the vanilla.
- Next, mix in the dry ingedients and the yogurt/milk, alternating between the two as you go.
- Fold in the blueberries.
- Pour the cupcake batter into a cupcake tin with cupcake liners, then bake for 30 minutes.
- Cool for 5 minutes, then let the cupcakes cool on a cooling rack while you make the frosting.
- Melt the white chocolate over a double boiler, or melt it in a glass bowl in the microwave on 10 second intervals, stirring between each interval.
- Once the chocolate is melted, pour it into a seperate bowl to cool down a bit.
- Cream the butter for 2-3 minutes on medium.
- Mix in the heavy cream, then the vanilla.
- Mix in the powdered sugar on low, then turn it to high for about 15 seconds.
- Once the cupcakes are completely cool, frost them and add some orange sprinkles on top.
- Eat.
