Ingredients

Units Scale

Cupcakes:

  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (softened)
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup whole milk
  • 1/2 cup finely diced strawberries
  • 1/2 cup finely diced mango

Frosting:

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (softened)
  • 4 oz cream cheese (softened)
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons mango puree
  • 1 tablespoon strawberry puree
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven and prepare pan: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin pan with cupcake liners.
  2. Prepare dry ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
  3. Mix wet ingredients: In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time, then mix in vanilla. Alternate adding the flour mixture and milk, starting and ending with flour.
  4. Add fruit: Gently fold in the diced strawberries and mango.
  5. Bake: Divide batter among cupcake liners, filling each about ¾ full. Bake for 18–22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  6. Cool and frost: Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. For the frosting, beat butter and cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add powdered sugar, then mix in mango puree, strawberry puree, vanilla, and salt. Beat until fluffy. Pipe or spread over cooled cupcakes.

Notes

  • Use freeze-dried fruit powder to intensify frosting flavor without thinning it.
  • Best enjoyed within 2 days. Store in the fridge in an airtight container.
