Let's start by making the cupcake dough. In a bowl, combine soft butter and sugar.
Beat the butter and sugar with a mixer for a minute, then add the eggs and beat well again.
Pour milk at room temperature into the resulting butter-egg mass, add the zest of half a lemon and 2 tbsp. lemon juice. Mix ingredients on low speed mixer.
Mix flour with baking powder, sift into a bowl with the base.
Knead a homogeneous dough.
Divide batter into muffin cups lined with paper cups. In total, you will get 12 cupcakes, each will take about 1.5 tbsp. test.
Bake cupcakes in an oven preheated to 180 degrees for 25-30 minutes. Remove the finished lemon cupcakes from the oven and let them cool completely.
For cream, combine room temperature cream cheese, powdered sugar, and pink gel food coloring.
Whisk the ingredients for the cream for a minute.
Approximately 0.5 tbsp. put the cream in a separate bowl, add a couple of drops of red gel food coloring and mix until the color is uniform.
Brush the surface of each cupcake with pink buttercream.
Cut pink marshmallows as follows: 6 pcs. - lengthwise in half to get 12 "patch", and 6 more pcs. - in half and diagonally in half again, to get 24 "ears" -triangles. Decorate these cupcakes.
Transfer the red cream to a pastry bag, cut off a small tip, literally a little bit, so that the hole is thin, and draw the eyes and mouth of the pigs.
With melted chocolate on the "patch" draw the nostrils.
Pink Pigs cupcakes are ready.
