Description
Cheerful and easy Strawberry Bunny Cupcakes filled with real strawberries, topped with sweet vanilla frosting and playful marshmallow ears, perfect for spring parties.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup milk
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup chopped strawberries
- 1 cup vanilla frosting
- Chocolate chips or candy for decoration (eyes)
- Mini marshmallows (for ears)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup cupcake pan with liners. Chop 1 cup fresh strawberries into small pieces and set them aside.
- Cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each. Gradually add milk and mix until combined.
- Whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt in another bowl. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, mixing until just combined. Fold in the chopped strawberries gently.
- Fill the cupcake liners about 2/3 full with batter. Bake for 18–20 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Allow to cool completely on a wire rack.
- Frost the cupcakes with vanilla frosting. Press two mini marshmallows at an angle for ears and use chocolate chips for the eyes.
Notes
Let the cupcakes cool completely before frosting to keep the frosting smooth. Use room-temperature ingredients for best texture.
