Strawberry Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting

By Olgalina

First of all congrats to all Dutchmen for a new king Willem-Alexander! I didn't prepare anything orange though...but I was close:)
These light and fruity cupcakes do their task very well- they bring summer into your house:)  High percentage of strawberries makes them really moist and very fragrant. I reduced butter content in the dough and added some Greek yoghurt instead, which made this dessert even lighter in terms of calories. Frosting is rich, tangy and has a hint of this nice and fresh strawberry flavor.

50g Greek yoghurt
125g flour
10g baking powder
125g sugar
vanilla
2 eggs
4 tb.s. milk
200g strawberries
zest of 0,5 lemon
Oven 200C.
Mix butter and sugar until creamy, add eggs one by one, yoghurt and milk. Stir in flour and baking powder with vanilla and lemon zest. Carefully add cut into chunks and slightly rolled in flour strawberries.
Divide the dough between 12 cupcake forms lined with paper. Bake during 15 min. Chill them completely.

Strawberry Cream Cheese Frosting
500g cream cheese
300g vanila powdered sugar
2tb.s. strawberry jam, blended
50g soft butter
Beat cream cheese and sugar powder until light, add soft butter and jam one spoon at a time. Make sure there are no lumps. Chill before piping.
This frosting is enough for 12 cupcakes and 8x60ml ice cream pops. It makes really good creamy frozen dessert for the kids. If you don't need that, just use only half of every ingredient to frost the cupcakes.
