Ingredients

Cupcakes

  • 1 box Betty Crocker™ Delights Super Moist™ Strawberry Cake Mix
  • Water, vegetable oil and eggs called for on cake mix box
  • 3/4 cup strawberry jelly

Cream Cheese Frosting

  • 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup butter, softened
  • 2 to 3 teaspoons milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 4 cups powdered sugar

Decorations

  • Red and pink candies

Directions

  •  
    1
    Heat oven to 350°F. Make and bake cake mix as directed on box for 24 cupcakes, using colored paper baking cups. Cool 10 minutes; remove from pan to cooling rack. Cool completely, about 30 minutes.
  •  
    2
    While cupcakes are cooling, in medium bowl, beat cream cheese, butter, milk and vanilla with electric mixer on low speed until smooth. Gradually beat in powdered sugar, 1 cup at a time, on low speed until smooth and spreadable. Set aside.

    3
    Place decorating tip with very small opening (about 1/8 inch) into disposable decorating bag or resealable freezer plastic bag. Spoon jelly into bag. Insert tip into center of each cooled cupcake, about halfway down; gently squeeze bag, pulling upward until cupcake swells slightly and filing comes to top. Wipe tip occasionally to remove crumbs.
  •  
    4
    Frost each cupcake with about 2 tablespoons frosting. Decorate with candies.

Expert Tips

  • tip 1
