I am just getting around to blogging about these yummy Strawberries & Cream Cupcakes! I made them a couple of months ago for a teacher’s 40th birthday party at school.
They were super yummy!
If you love cream cheese and you love strawberries, you will be a forever fan.
I found the original recipe at a website called Favorite Family Recipes.
She made this as a cake. I can see myself trying that next. The frosting is so luscious and gooey, the pan would contain it better. This is NOT a pipe on kind of frosting. It is a super easy one to decorate, spoon it on, and top it with half of a fresh strawberry.
So, try it as a cupcake or make it as a 9×13 cake, either way, you have to make it. I mean it’s summertime… and strawberries are everywhere… try it, you can thank me later.
