Strawberry Topped Cupcakes
Strawberries are a fabulous fruit. They taste great and can work with virtually any desert your preparing but they look beautiful! That's why I like to top my famous low-fat cupcakes with deliciously beautiful strawberries!
Ingredients:
- cupcake mix (any flavor)
- corresponding icing
- 1 cup plain apple sauce
- 3 egg whites
- (Typically) 1- 1/3 cup water
- Fresh strawberries
To Make:
Prepare the cupcake batter as shown on the box, however substitute the oil for one cup of plain apple sauce and the 3 eggs for just the whites.
Bake according the package and let cool for at least 20 minutes before attempting to ice them. Also make sure icing is at room temperature before attempting to ice.
Ice cupcakes with desired icing amount and arrange neatly into a serving dish or cake pan as seen in the picture.
Thoroughly wash strawberries and remove their "greens." Cut out the white part in the center. Slice each strawberry down the middle and arrange in whatever creative fashion you'd like on top of each cupcake. Use remaining strawberries to adorn the serving dish.
