This cupcake doesn't contain coffee, but it's perfect with a cup of coffee or tea. It's filled with a delightful vanilla-citrus aroma and flavor, and poppy seeds offer a pleasant crunch. The batter is quick and easy to mix and baked in a special cupcake pan with a hole in the center for even baking. Once completely cooled, drizzle with a simple glaze of powdered sugar and lemon juice and enjoy.
