- 1 box white cake mix
- 1 box strawberry Jell-O ((4 servings size))
- 4 eggs
- ⅔ cup vegetable oil
- ⅔ cup milk

Langkah-langkah
Combine all cupcake ingredients in a medium bowl. Mix with a hand mixer on low for 1 minute. Mix on medium for 2 minutes.
Line 24 cupcake wells with liners or grease very well.
Divide the batter evenly between the wells.
Bake according to box directions.
Puree fresh strawberries in a food processor until smooth *see notes for freeze-dried strawberries. Place in a non-stick saucepan over medium heat and simmer until reduced to ⅓ cup (approximately 15 minutes) while stirring. Cool completely.
Cream butter and 1 cup of powdered sugar with a hand mixer until fluffy. Add the cooled strawberry puree and mix well.
Add powdered sugar a bit at a time until the frosting is thick and fluffy. If the mixture is too thick, heavy cream can be added 1 tablespoon at a time to reach desired consistency.
Pipe the frosting onto the cooled cupcakes.
