For the Cupcakes
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
-
Line 24 regular sized muffin tins with paper liners; set aside.
-
Combine flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium sized bowl. Using a wire whisk, whisk together until completely combined.
-
In a large bowl, cream shortening and sugar.
-
Add egg whites, and mix on high speed for 5 minutes, scraping the sides of the bowl occasionally.
-
Beat in vanilla.
-
Reduce mixer speed to lowest speed, and add 1/3 of the flour mixture. Mix until just combined.
-
Add half the milk, then another 1/3 of the flour mixture, the remaining milk, and then the remaining flour mixture.
-
Scrape the sides of the bowl, and mix until just combined, taking care not to overmix.
-
Divide batter evenly among muffin tins.
-
Bake for 20 minutes, or until inserted toothpick comes out clean.
-
Allow to cool completely.
For the Cinnamon Frosting
-
Cream margarine in a large bowl, using an electric mixer.
-
Add 2 cups of powdered sugar, cinnamon, whipped topping, and salt.
-
Beat on high, until smooth and creamy.
-
Add remaining powdered sugar, and mix until smooth.
To Assemble
-
Using an apple corer, or a small paring knife, remove the center of each cupcake, creating a “well.”
-
The “well” should reach almost to the bottom of the cupcake, but not all the way, and should be one inch in diameter.
-
Drop a small teaspoon of blueberry pie filling into each cupcake’s “well”.
-
Pipe a swirl of cinnamon frosting on top.
-
Garnish with fresh blueberries.
