Ingredients

This cupcake recipe starts with a box of your favorite cake mix. You'll also need some regular ingredients you probably already have in your pantry - eggs, vegetable oil, and water. In addition, you'll need some fresh or frozen strawberries and strawberry jam.

For the cake mix, you can use any flavor you like. Chocolate, vanilla, or even lemon are all good choices. You'll need one 15.25 ounce box of cake mix, two eggs, 1/3 cup vegetable oil, 1/2 cup water, and 1/2 cup strawberry jam.

For the strawberry topping, you'll need 1/2 cup fresh or frozen strawberries. If you're using frozen strawberries, make sure to thaw and strain them before using. You'll also need 2 tablespoons of sugar and 2 teaspoons of cornstarch.

Instructions

To start, preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. Line a cupcake pan with 12 paper liners. In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, eggs, vegetable oil, and water. Beat with an electric mixer for about two minutes, until the batter is smooth and creamy.

Next, spoon the batter evenly into the prepared cupcake liners. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the cupcakes are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

While the cupcakes are baking, make the strawberry topping. In a small saucepan, combine the strawberries, sugar, and cornstarch. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture is thick and bubbly. Remove from the heat and let cool.

Once the cupcakes are done baking, let them cool completely. Once cooled, spread the strawberry topping on top of each cupcake. If desired, top with some extra whole strawberries.
