Time 47m

Yield 24 cupcakes

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups unsalted butter, room temperature
1 1/2 cups sugar
4 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 1/4 cups milk
optional about 1 cup prepared light pastry cream or vanilla pudding
1 cup butter, room temperature
1 cup strawberry, pureed (I measured out the strawberries first and then pureed them)
3 -4 cups powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Line two standard 12-cup muffin tins with pink paper liners; set aside.
  • Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl; set aside.
  • Cream butter and sugar on medium-high speed until pale and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Add eggs, 1 at a time, mixing well after each egg. Add vanilla.
  • Reduce speed to medium. Mix in 3 batches of flour mixture, alternating with 2 batches of milk. Raise speed to medium-high; mix until thoroughly blended, 10 to 20 seconds.
  • Fill each muffin cup about 3/4 full with batter; do not over-fill.
  • Bake until a cake tester inserted into centers comes out clean, about 17 minutes.
  • Let cool in tin on wire racks 10 minutes. Remove cupcakes from tin and decorate.
  • If filling with cream, use a small spoon or the tip of a knife to make a small hole in the center of each cupcake, going about half way through the cupcake. Fill the hole with cream and then pipe buttercream on top.
  • Make Strawberry Buttercream:.
  • Cream the butter in the mixer on medium-high speed for about 3 minutes. On slow speed, gradually add about 2 cups of powdered sugar and turn back up to high for a few minutes to really incorporate the sugar. Turn to slow speed again and fold in the strawberries. Add more sugar until desired consistency is achieved. Once all the sugar is incorporated, turn to medium-high for a few minutes to mix well.

Time 1h

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
¼ cup Dutch-process dark chocolate cocoa powder
1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
⅔ cup white sugar
½ cup whole milk
½ cup vegetable oil
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup seedless raspberry preserves
1 ½ cups powdered sugar
½ cup unsalted butter, softened
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon milk, or more as needed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
  • Sift flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder together in a bowl. Whisk sugar, milk, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract together in another bowl. Gradually add flour mixture to sugar mixture, whisking until combined. Spoon batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each 2/3 full.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean, 12 to 15 minutes. Allow to cool in the tin for 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely.

Tips:

  • Prepare ahead: You can bake the cupcakes and make the buttercream a day in advance. Store them separately at room temperature for up to 24 hours. Assemble the cupcakes just before serving.
  • Use the right butter: Unsalted butter is best for making buttercream because it allows you to control the amount of salt in the frosting. If you only have salted butter, omit the additional salt in the buttercream recipe.
  • Beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy: This is the key to a smooth and creamy buttercream. Beat the butter and sugar together for at least 2 minutes, or until the mixture is pale yellow and fluffy.
  • Add the liquid ingredients gradually: Add the milk or cream and vanilla extract in small amounts, beating well after each addition. This will help prevent the buttercream from curdling.
  • Use fresh strawberries: Fresh strawberries will give your buttercream the best flavor. If you don't have fresh strawberries, you can use frozen strawberries that have been thawed and drained.
  • Chill the buttercream before using: Chilling the buttercream for at least 30 minutes will help it firm up and make it easier to pipe.
  • Decorate the cupcakes with your favorite sprinkles: You can use any type of sprinkles you like to decorate the cupcakes. Some popular options include rainbow sprinkles, chocolate sprinkles, or strawberry sprinkles.

Conclusion:

These cream-filled vanilla cupcakes with strawberry buttercream are a delicious and festive treat that are perfect for any occasion. With their moist and fluffy vanilla cupcakes, creamy vanilla filling, and sweet strawberry buttercream, these cupcakes are sure to be a hit with everyone.
