¼ teaspoon salt

4 cups confectioners' sugar

½ cup seedless blackberry jam

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Line 24 muffin cups with paper liners.

Beat in flour and baking powder until thoroughly combined; beat in milk, lemon juice, and lemon zest to make a smooth batter.
