STRAWBERRY FILLED CUPCAKES WITH WHIPPED CREAM FROSTING

Ingredients

Cupcakes with Strawberry Filling:

• 4 large eggs, room temperature
• 1 1/2 cups cane sugar*
• 1 cup canola oil
• 3 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour*
• 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup buttermilk*
• 1/2 cup fresh strawberries*, chopped
• Cream Cheese Frosting:
• 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 1/4 cup cane sugar*
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350° F, and prepare your muffin tins by adding cupcake liners to each muffin cup.
2. Add the eggs to a large bowl, and beat well.
3. Then add the sugar and continue beating for about 30 seconds.
4. Add the canola oil and vanilla extract, beating until well combined.
5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients, including the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Then gradually add dry ingredients to the mixture, alternating adding the dry ingredients with the buttermilk.
6. Beat until everything is well combined; the batter will be thin. Then divide the cupcake batter into the cupcake liners, filling each one about 2/3 full.
7. Bake the vanilla cupcakes at 350° F for about 12 to 14 minutes, or until a cake tester or toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Then allow them to cool on a wire rack.
8. Core the cupcakes. If you don't have a cupcake corer, that's ok. A melon baller works great, as does a simple butter/table knife, paring knife, or even an apple corer.
9. Fill the cupcakes with about 1/4 teaspoon of the chopped berries, and then replace the cored portion of the cupcake.
10. To make the frosting, combine the cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract in a large mixing bowl, beating until creamy.
11. Gradually add in the heavy whipping cream, beating the frosting until stiff peaks form.
12. Then add a spoonful of frosting to each vanilla cupcake, and top it off with a whole fresh strawberry, sliced strawberry, or a teaspoon of chopped strawberries.

Notes
*or granulated sugar.

*or a good gluten-free flour. I prefer Authentic Foods Classical Blend or Cake Flour. And you'll also need xanthan gum, if it's not already included in the flour blend you use.
