Strawberry Cupcakes with White Chocolate Frosting

Monday, August 13, 2012

Despite the rumblings that cupcake excitement is dwindling, I am still a believer. I don't make them all that often, but you can believe that they are the first things I peruse at a bakery. These cupcakes are just about perfect for summer. A whole bunch of strawberries live happily inside a tender, moist cake. The white chocolate frosting is a delicious complement to all that berry goodness.

It's been a while since I made a quick bread. They're truly one of my favorite things to bake, although I don't seem to make them often. Anyway, I decided to take advantage of all the summer berries by making a simple bread with strawberries. Of course, what goes better with strawberries than cream cheese? Granted, I'm pretty much always looking for an excuse to use cream cheese, but this is truly a fabulous use for it.

Well, my friends, I am less than happy to say that summer is officially here. I've never been a fan of hot weather. This year, though, I'm going to try to think of every day of this heat as one day closer to fall. On a happier note, there are two things I like about summer. I do like having more daylight hours. I somehow feel like I have more time to get things done. Best of all, though, is all the fruit available from the local markets. I admit that I get a little giddy when I start seeing the first fresh berries of the season.
