Ingredients
  

Cupcake Batter
  • 1 box strawberry cake mix
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup water
Frosting
  • 1 cup whipped cream or frosting

Equipment

  • Electric Mixer
  • Measuring Cups
  • Spatula
  • Cupcake Tray
  • Oven
  • Cooling Rack

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F and line a cupcake tray. Prepare for even baking.
  2. Mix cake mix, eggs, oil, and water until smooth batter forms. Avoid overmixing.
  3. Fill cupcake liners about two-thirds full. Keep portions even for uniform baking.
  4. Bake until tops spring back lightly and edges set. Do not overbake.
  5. Cool completely before adding frosting. Decorate as desired and serve.

Notes

For softer cupcakes, avoid overbaking. For firmer tops, extend bake time slightly. Chill before frosting for easier handling. Add chocolate chips or fruit for variation. Store covered at room temperature for two days or refrigerate longer.
