These delightful strawberry jam cupcakes are a sweet treat that combines the flavors of fresh strawberries and jam in every bite. The marbled effect adds a touch of elegance to these cupcakes, making them perfect for any special occasion or a sweet indulgence.
Ingredients: 1 cup all-purpose flour. 1/2 cup granulated sugar. 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened. 2 eggs. 1/4 cup milk. 1/4 cup strawberry jam. 1 tsp baking powder. 1/2 tsp vanilla extract. Pinch of salt. 1/4 cup strawberry jam for filling. 1 cup powdered sugar for frosting. 2 tbsp unsalted butter for frosting. 2-3 tbsp milk for frosting. 1/2 tsp vanilla extract for frosting. Fresh strawberries for garnish.
Instructions: Preheat the oven to 350F 175C and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners. In a bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract. In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the milk. Mix until just combined. Fold in 1/4 cup of strawberry jam into the batter. Fill each cupcake liner halfway with the batter. Add a small spoonful of strawberry jam on top of the batter in each liner. Swirl it into the batter with a toothpick or skewer to create a marbled effect. Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean. Remove the cupcakes from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely. In a bowl, beat together the powdered sugar, 2 tbsp of unsalted butter, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Adjust the consistency with more milk if needed. Once the cupcakes are completely cool, pipe or spread the frosting on top of each cupcake. Garnish with fresh strawberries and enjoy your strawberry jam cupcakes!
