These adorable mini-cupcakes would be perfect for a spring brunch or summer treat. The cake is flavored with fresh lemon juice and zest for zing while the yogurt-cream cheese frosting, as well as a fresh raspberry, balances that tartness with some berry flavor. To make these ahead of time, bake the cupcakes and make the frosting up to a day in advance and store them separately in the refrigerator. Frost the cupcakes just before serving them.
