Ingredients

• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 1.5 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 cup Unsalted butter
• 0.5 cup Fresh strawberries (finely chopped)
• 2 units Large eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.5 cup Whole milk
• 2 cups Powdered sugar
• 2 tablespoons Strawberry jam
• 2 tablespoons Heavy cream
• 0.25 cup Sprinkles

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with cupcake liners.

Step 2

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

Step 3

Add the unsalted butter to the dry ingredients and mix on low speed with an electric hand mixer or stand mixer until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, vanilla extract, and milk. Gradually add this wet mixture to the dry ingredients, mixing until smooth and creamy.

Step 5

Gently fold in the chopped fresh strawberries until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 6

Spoon the batter into the prepared cupcake liners, filling each about two-thirds full.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 18 to 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean.

Step 8

Remove the cupcakes from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

To make the frosting, beat unsalted butter with an electric mixer until light and fluffy, then gradually add powdered sugar and continue mixing.

Step 10

Stir in the strawberry jam and heavy cream until the frosting is smooth and creamy.

Step 11

Once the cupcakes are completely cooled, pipe or spread the strawberry buttercream frosting on top of each cupcake.

Step 12

Finish each cupcake with a generous sprinkling of colorful sprinkles for a fun and festive touch.

Step 13

Serve and enjoy your Sprinkles Strawberry Cupcakes!
