Ingredients

24 servings

  • 1 ½ cups diced strawberries
  • ½ cup white sugar
  • 1 (15.25 ounce) package white cake mix
  • ⅓ cup vegetable oil
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 drop red food coloring, or as desired (Optional)
  • ¼ cup water
  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 ¼ cups white sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened

Instructions

  • Combine strawberries and sugar in a bowl; stir well. Place in a refrigerator until a light syrup forms, about 40 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 24 cupcake cups or line with paper liners.
  • Combine cake mix, oil, eggs, and food coloring in a large bowl. Add strawberry compote and mix well. Pour in water slowly and mix until batter is blended.
  • Divide batter evenly between the prepared cupcake cups.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean, about 18 minutes. Remove from the oven and transfer to wire racks to cool completely, 15 to 30 minutes.
  • Beat heavy cream, sugar, and vanilla extract together in a mixing bowl using an electric mixer until stiff peaks form. Fold in cream cheese until smooth. Frost completely cooled cupcakes.
