Strawberries and Cream Filled Cupcakes

Hi everyone!! It’s Amanda here, from Old House to New Home. I sharing with you today my ¨signature” cupcake recipe. I am not the most avid baker in the world, but when I need to make a treat for someone’s birthday or special event, this is my go to recipe. They are super easy, so delicious, and everyone always asks for the recipe.  Strawberries and Cream filled cupcakes sounds so fancy, but you will be surprised at how easy these are!

Strawberries and Cream Filled Cupcakes
The easiest part of this recipe is the cupcake itself. It is a yellow cake mix, but I have a special trick that I do to make the cake taste better and more homemade. You replace the amount of water called for with milk! This gives you a super light, but moist cupcake every time.

Ingredients:
For the Cake:

• 1 yellow cake mix, pudding in the mix is the best!
• amount of eggs called for on the box
• amount of oil called for on the box
• amount of water called for on the box, but replace with milk

For the Filling:

• 1/2 cup strawberry preserves

For the icing:

• 12 oz. cream cheese, softened
• 1 stick of unsalted butter, at room temperature
• 3-4 cups powdered sugar
• 2 tsp.vanilla
• 1 tbsp. milk

Instructions:

1. Prepare and then bake cupcakes according to box’s directions. Don’t forget to replace the water with milk!
2. When cupcakes are done, remove from the oven and set aside to cool.
3. Prepare icing by placing your butter and cream cheese in the bowl of a stand mixer and beating until smooth and creamy about 3-4 minutes.
