Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Line 24 muffin cups with paper liners.
- Beat lemon cake mix, water, vegetable oil, and eggs in a large bowl for 2 minutes.
- Spoon batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling them about 2/3 full.
- Bake cupcakes in the preheated oven until very lightly browned and a toothpick inserted into the middle of a cupcake comes out clean, 18 to 22 minutes. Cool cupcakes thoroughly.
- Cut vegetable shortening and 1/4 cup butter together in a bowl with a pastry cutter until well mixed. Beat lemon juice into shortening mixture until creamy.
- Stir 2 cups confectioners' sugar into shortening mixture, about 1/2 cup at a time, until the filling is smooth. Set filling aside.
- Place white chocolate into a microwave-safe bowl; heat in microwave on High for 15 seconds and stir chocolate. Continue heating in 15-second intervals, stirring between heating until white chocolate is melted and smooth.
- For frosting, beat cream cheese and 1/2 cup butter together in a bowl until smooth and creamy. Stir in melted white chocolate and vanilla extract.
- Gradually beat in 4 cups confectioners' sugar, alternating with drizzles of orange juice, to make a smooth and creamy frosting.
- Cut holes through the top of each cupcake. Holes should be deep enough to put filling inside.
- Spoon lemon filling into the holes.
- Pipe the cream cheese frosting on top of cupcakes; sprinkle with lemon zest.

Steps:
- Make the lemon curd:
- Heat all the ingredients except for the butter, in a small saucepan. Keep it stirring every so often until it coats the back of a spoon (you should be able to draw a line through it). Remove from heat. Once off the heat, add the butter and mix in until melted and incorporated. Set aside to cool.
- Make the cake:
- Preheat the oven to 325F.
- In a large mixer bowl, add the flour, sugar, butter, baking powder and salt. Mix together until it is a sandy consistency.
- In a separate liquid measuring cup, add the milk, eggs and vanilla.
- Slowly add the wet to the dry, mixing until just incorporated. Do not over mix.
- Add the batter to cupcake liners, filling about 2/3 of the way through.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, until the cake springs back when touched and a tester comes out clean. Set aside to cool.
- Make the frosting:
- Beat together the butter and sugar, slowly to avoid a cloud of sugar blowing back in your face.
- Add the vanilla, milk and food coloring, adding more or less milk depending on how thick or thin you desire.
- Assemble the cupcakes:
- When the cupcakes are cool, take a knife and hollow out the center of each, making sure to keep the "lid." I've seen a few methods out there on how to fill cupcakes, and this has always worked best for me.**
- Spoon approximately 1 tsp of lemon curd in each cupcake hole. Cover with the "lid."
- Frost the top as normal with frosting.
- Enjoy!
