Number Of Ingredients 14

CAKE
1 box white cake mix
3 egg whites
1 c water
1/3 c vegetable oil
FILLING
2 c fresh strawberries; diced
1/4 c granulated sugar ( more or less to taste)
TOPPING
1-2 pt heavy whipping cream
1/3- 1/2 c powdered sugar
3-4 Tbsp vanilla instant pudding mix
1 tsp clear vanilla extract
FRESH STRAWBERRY AND RAW SUGAR GARNISH

Steps:

  • 1. Bake cupcakes as directed per cake mix. Adjust your water, oil and egg whites accordingly. I use Duncan Hines.
  • 2. While cupcakes are baking. Dice 2 cups of strawberries in 1/8- 1/4 inch in size. Add sugar to taste. Refrigerate until ready to fill.
  • 3. When cupcakes are cool, take a spoon or melon ballers work great and scoop out the center of the cupcake. Do not go too deep. You are creating a pocket for your filling.
  • 4. Drain excess syrup from strawberry filling and fill cupcake pockets.
  • 5. Whip together whipping cream, powdered sugar, pudding mix and vanilla until stiff peaks form. Do not over whip.
  • 6. Pipe on frosting or apply with spatula. We prefer a lot of frosting on our cupcakes.
  • 7. Garnish with fresh strawberries and raw sugar ;if desired.
  • 8. These cupcakes need to be refrigerated and do not store longer than a few days...if they last that long.
  • 9. Enjoy!
