Strawberries and creme cupcakes

By duckieq

Ingredients

• 1 box yellow cake mix plus ingredients to prepare it
• 1 lb fresh strawberries
• 1 pint heavy whipping cream
• 3 Tbsp. powdered sugar

Preparation

Step 1

While they bake, finely chop five to seven strawberries until they are almost a pulp. Cut the tops off of 12 strawberries. Set aside.
In a bowl, beat the whipping cream, chopped strawberries, and powdered sugar until the mixture forms stiff peaks when the beaters are lifted up. Set aside.
Let the cupcakes cool completely, then cut a hole in each one about the width of a quarter (leave room at the bottom of the cupcake). Press a strawberry, pointed side down into each cupcake, then top with whipped cream.
