Steps:
- Special equipment: 1 muffin tin
- Make the cupcakes according to package instructions. Lightly grease the muffin tin and fill the batter almost to the rim of each muffin cup. Bake according to package directions and let cool.
- In a food processor combine the mascarpone cheese, strawberries, 1/4 cup sugar, and lemon juice. Process the mixture until smooth. Transfer the strawberry mixture to a pastry bag fitted with a small tip. Push the tip gently into the bottom of a cupcake and squeeze in the strawberry mixture until the cupcake plumps. Continue with the remaining cupcakes.
- In a small saucepan bring the 1/2 cup sugar, water, and vanilla extract to a simmer over medium heat. Simmer until the sugar is dissolved. In a medium bowl combine the vanilla syrup with the confectioner's sugar. Stir until smooth. Working quickly, use a rubber spatula spread the icing on the top of the cupcakes. If the icing begins to firm up, place in the microwave for a few seconds to warm up again.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray 18 muffin cups with nonstick spray.
- Blend cake mix, water, oil, egg whites, almond extract, and vanilla extract in a large bowl at low speed until moistened, about 30 seconds. Beat at medium speed for 2 minutes. Pour batter evenly into the prepared cups.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean, 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool completely, about 30 minutes.
- While cupcakes cool, smash the fresh strawberries with the back of a fork in a bowl until they are a coarse pulp. Add jam and lemon zest.
- Beat cream cheese in a mixing bowl until fluffy. Mix in fruit mixture and until well combined. Fold in whipped topping. Cover and refrigerate until cupcakes finish cooling.
- Slice off the top half of the cupcakes and spoon a layer of strawberry filling onto each. Cover with the top half. Dust with confectioners' sugar.

- In a food processor combine the mascarpone cheese, strawberries, 1/4 cup sugar, and lemon juice. Process the mixture until smooth. Transfer the strawberry mixture to a pastry bag fitted with a small tip. Push the tip gently into the bottom of a cupcake and squeeze in the strawberry mixture until the cupcake plumps.
