I was not impressed with these. When frozen the blueberry filling was too hard. When thawed the topping was a little too messy. I also thought the topping was a little too tart. This recipe also made more than twelve cupcakes, probably about 18 if you don't want to waste food. All this being said, I didn't think these were totally inedible- they just need some work. I think if I were to try this again, which I probably won't, I might try half whipped topping, half lemon yogurt instead of the recipe topping. Or I might only use half a container of lemonade concentrate to cut back on tartness. In addition, I might try mixing the blueberry pie filling with some whipped cream or cookie mixture so that it doesn't become so solid when frozen.
