The addition of diced fresh strawberries makes this Strawberry Milkshake Buttercream the perfect complement to the french vanilla cake beneath in this Strawberry Milkshake Cupcake!
I wasn't planning on posting these cupcakes when I started to make them. I made them on a whim last week when I was craving a cupcake. They are so simple, yet turned out to be one seriously delicious cupcake!
I was browsing thru several “new to me” blogs one day, and someone had mentioned frosting that tasted just like a strawberry milkshake. I didn’t bookmark it or pin it……but couldn’t get those words out of my head. Then I started searching for the post, I couldn’t even remember what blog I was on. I don’t even think the post was about the cupcakes, maybe they just mentioned cupcakes they ate some where.
I started searching frosting until I found one that sounded good – with strawberry jello in it! I wanted to try it with Nesquik Strawberry Milk, but I didn’t have any, so I stuck with the jello.
One bite into these cupcakes, I realized that they taste amazingly like strawberry milk or milkshake — flashback to my childhood! I remember coming home from school, making myself strawberry milk and settling down to watch The Brady Bunch.
Not only do these Strawberry Milkshake Cupcakes take you back to being a kid, the vanilla cake makes the perfect partner to the dreamy strawberry frosting. Best of all, you could easily tweak this recipe if you are more of a chocolate strawberry lover, by using chocolate cake!………oh I think I see another batch in my future, you know….to compare and see which is better!
