Planning on making these tomorrow. I have found that most of the recipes that I have tried from this certain cook book don't do very well in our household. Most of them are just too sweet. Not saying that we don't like sweet things. I live for chocolate. My main addiction. But these look yummy.
Here is the recipe:
1 box yellow cake mix
1 container (8 oz) sour cream
1/2 cup veggie oil
1/2 cup water
2 eggs
3 tbls strawberry preserves (thanks Jodie)
1 pkg (3oz) cream cheese, cut into 24 slices (I am using from a tub)
1 container rich & creamy cream cheese frosting
sliced fresh strawberries, opt
1. Heat oven to 350. Place paper baking cup in each of 24 regular-size muffin cups. In large bowl, mix cake mix, sour cream, oil, water & eggs with spoon until well blended (batter will be thick). Divide batter evenly among muffin cups.
2. In small bowl, stir strawberry preserves until smooth. Place 1 piece of cream cheese on top of batter in each cupcake; press in slightly. Place 1/4 measuring tsp of preserves over cream cheese.
3. Bake 18-23 minutes or until tops are golden brown & spring back when touched lightly in center (some preserves may show in tops of cupcakes). Cool 10 minutes; remove from pan to wire rack. Cool completely, about 30 minutes.
4. Frost with frosting. Just before serving, garnish each cupcake with strawberry slices. Store covered in fridge.
I don't plan on doing the fresh strawberries. If this recipe is worth keeping will give it a go the next time.
