Steps to Make Strawberry Cupcakes Without Frosting

Strawberry (Jam!) Cream Cheese Frosting

Recipe Summary Strawberry (Jam!) Cream Cheese Frosting

This foolproof frosting keeps it simple. While very sweet, it's just the thing to balance the natural flavor of a homestyle scratch cake recipe. I used it the first time to lighten up a cake made with a heavy whole grain white flour. Uh-mazing!
