Strawberry Short Cupcake


Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
2-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
1-1/2 cups plus 3 tablespoons sugar, divided
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, softened
3 eggs
1-1/2 cups cold whipping cream
2 quarts fresh strawberries, sliced
   
1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray 18 standard (2-1/2-inch) muffin cups with nonstick cooking spray.
2. Combine flour, baking powder and salt in medium bowl. Combine milk and vanilla in measuring cup. Beat 1-1/2 cups sugar and butter in large bowl with electric mixer at medium speed about 3 minutes or until creamy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add flour mixture alternately with milk mixture, beating until well blended. Spoon batter into prepared muffin cups, filling about three-fourths full.
3. Bake 18 to 20 minutes or until toothpick inserted into centers comes out clean. Cool cupcakes in pans 10 minutes. Remove from pans; cool completely on wire racks.
4. Beat cream in large bowl with electric mixer at high speed until soft peaks form. Gradually add remaining 3 tablespoons sugar; beat until stiff peaks form.
5. Cut cupcakes in half crosswise. Top each bottom half with about 2 tablespoons whipped cream and strawberries. Top with top half of cupcake, whipped cream and additional strawberries.
