Directions

Heat oven to 170C fan and line a cupcake tray with cases. 

  1. Put the flour, baking powder, sugar, eggs, milk  and butter (at room temperature) into a bowl.
  2. With an electric hand mixer, whisk for 1-2 minutes to a smooth batter then fold in the chopped strawberries.
  3. Divide the batter between the cupcake cases and bake for 15-18 minutes until golden brown and firm to touch.
  4. Remove from the oven and transfer to a wire rack after 5 minutes to finish cooling.
  5. To make the icing, whisk the room temperature butter until soft and creamy then gradually add the icing sugar. Add in the milk and whisk until soft and light followed by the vanilla and a few drops of food colouring to tint your buttercream.
  6. Pipe the buttercream onto the cupcakes and decorate each with half a strawberry on top.
