Blueberry Crumb Cupcakes

Rosebud has been dreaming of having a day when we do nothing except a variety of baking all day long. We agreed it would be a fun way to celebrate once I finish the book I was writing. Yesterday was the day we finally got to have our baking day.

Rosebud had a list of recipes she wanted to make after spending hours poring through cookbooks with a notepad and pen to jot down the things she wanted to try.

Our house is now filled with cupcakes, brownies, pie, and some other baked goodies as well. The freezer will be getting some of it but there's not a chance for these Blueberry Cupcakes to get to the freezer at the rate they are disappearing. 

Blueberry Crumb Cupcakes

½ cup butter (softened)
1 cup sugar
2 eggs
1 Tbsp vanilla
2 Cups flour
2 tsp. baking powder
pinch of salt
1/3 cup milk
1/3 cup water
1½ cup blueberries

Topping

1/3 cup flour
¼ cup butter (softened)
