Ingredients

For the cupcakes:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup butter, softened
  • 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup milk

For the topping:
  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
  • 2 tablespoons heavy cream
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup sliced strawberries

Instructions

For the cupcakes:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  • Mix in the vanilla extract. Add the dry ingredients in three additions, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients.
  • Fill the cupcake liners about two-thirds full. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Allow to cool completely before frosting.

For the topping:
  • In a medium bowl, combine the semi-sweet and white chocolate chips. Heat the heavy cream in the microwave for 30 seconds. Pour the hot cream over the chips and let sit for 5 minutes.
  • Stir in the vanilla and mix until smooth. Dip each cupcake top into the chocolate mixture, allowing any excess to drip off. Place onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  • Press a few slices of strawberry onto the top of each cupcake. Drizzle the tops with the remaining white chocolate mixture. Let set before serving.
