Ingredients

5 egg whites

1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons butter, softened

1 cup sugar , divided

3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

2-1/4 cups cake flour

2-1/4 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

3/4 cup milk

ICING:

4 ounces cream cheese, softened

1/3 cup butter, softened

2 cups Powdered Sugar

1/2 teaspoon lemon juice

Assorted fresh fruit

Directions

Directions:

Place egg whites in a large bowl; let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes. In another bowl, cream butter and 3/4 cup sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in vanilla. Combine the flour, baking powder and salt; add to creamed mixture alternately with milk.

Beat egg whites on medium speed until soft peaks form.

Gradually beat in remaining sugar, about 2 tablespoons at a time, on high until stiff glossy peaks form and sugar is dissolved.

Fold a fourth of the egg whites into batter; fold in remaining whites.

With a spoon, gently fill foil- or paper-lined muffin cups two-thirds full.

Bake at 350° for 18-22 minutes.

Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks to cool completely.

For icing, in a small bowl, beat cream cheese and butter until smooth.

Gradually beat in confectioners' sugar and lemon juice.

Spread over cupcakes.

Top with fruit. Yield: 22 cupcakes.
