    Preparation Steps

    1

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners.

    2

    In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.

    3

    In a separate bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.

    4

    Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.

    5

    Gently fold in the chopped fresh strawberries, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.

    6

    Fill the muffin liners about three-quarters full with batter. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

    7

    Let the cupcakes cool completely before frosting.

    8

    For the strawberry cream frosting, whip the heavy cream to stiff peaks. Gently fold in the strawberry purée and powdered sugar.

    9

    Transfer the strawberry whipped cream to a piping bag fitted with a decorative tip. Frost the cooled cupcakes.

    10

    Before serving, place a halved fresh strawberry on top of each cupcake.
