Strawberry Whipped Cream Frosting

  Now doesn't just the name of this frosting alone make your mouth water? Think strawberries dipped in whipped cream; that is exactly what this frosting taste like. In fact that is pretty much exactly what this frosting is!
A tip to be sure that your frosting it at a nice firm consistency is to just put that hand mixer to work! Just be patient and keep beating the frosting until it gets nice and stiff. If you stop too soon, when you pipe the frosting you will end up with a frosting blob that can't hold it's shape.
What would you eat this frosting with?

Chocolate Overload Cupcakes with Strawberry Whipped Cream Frosting

  These were a hit before they were even made. I mentioned the idea on facebook and the "yes please" , "do you deliver", and "yums" came pouring in! And let me tell you the name itself just can't articulate just how yummy these little creations were. The frosting alone can be eaten by the spoonfuls, just think strawberries and whipped cream without the hassle of dipping and chewing. It was the first time I made the strawberry whipped cream frosting and it has definitely become an instant favorite. I'm just trying to decide what other combinations I can make using it! The chocolate overload cupcakes are great on it's own, but the frosting just put it over the top. I'm thinking of doing some strawberry cupcakes with a chocolate whipped cream frosting next...chocolate covered strawberries...why does that sound so familiar? Happy Baking everybody!

Chocolate Overload Cupcakes

These cupcakes are super moist and my go to chocolate cupcake/cake recipe. It is a doctored up box cake recipe that tastes great! I don't actually measure the chocolate chips, I just add as much as my mood desires☺
For standard sized cupcakes bake for 18 to 20 minutes.
The recipe makes exactly 30 cupcakes.
