Simple strawberry cupcakes topped with fluffy cream cheese frosting, made easy with cake mix.

  • 1.5 cups diced strawberries
  • 0.5 cup white sugar
  • 1 (15.25 ounce) package white cake mix
  • 0.33333334326744 cup vegetable oil

  • In a bowl, mix strawberries and sugar thoroughly. Chill in the refrigerator until a light syrup forms, approximately 40 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and prepare a cupcake pan with greased 24 cups or paper liners.
  • In a large bowl, mix together cake mix, oil, eggs, and food coloring. Add strawberry compote and blend thoroughly. Slowly incorporate water until batter is well combined.
  • Scoop batter into each cupcake cup, distributing it evenly.
