Real Strawberry-Poked White Cupcakes with Whipped Cream

Strawberry-Poked White Cupcakes with Whipped Cream

With a thick, fresh strawberry syrup poured inside a vanilla cupcake topped with whipped cream, you can’t go wrong!  These are just delicious!  

I like this a lot better than jello-poked cakes or cupcakes.

 I have made these with my own vanilla homemade cupcake recipe which I absolutely love and will share, but this version with the box mix is quick and real good too!

It works with standard-size cupcakes but I prefer making this with the jumbo- muffin/cupcake tins to get even more of that delicious strawberry filling inside each one.

 Enjoy!
