Ingredients

Scale
  • For the Mango Cupcakes:
    • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
    • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder
    • 1/4 tsp salt
    • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
    • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
    • 2 large eggs
    • 1/2 cup mango puree (fresh or canned)
    • 1/4 cup milk
    • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • For the Strawberry Frosting:
    • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
    • 3 cups powdered sugar
    • 1/4 cup fresh strawberries, pureed
    • 1 tsp vanilla extract
    • Fresh strawberry slices or mango pieces (for garnish, optional)

Instructions

  • Prepare the Mango Cupcakes:
    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a cupcake pan with paper liners. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the mango puree, milk, and vanilla extract until well combined. Gradually add the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  • Bake the Cupcakes:
    Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake liners, filling each about 2/3 full. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean. Allow the cupcakes to cool completely on a wire rack before frosting.
  • Make the Strawberry Frosting:
    In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter until creamy. Gradually add the powdered sugar, beating until smooth. Mix in the strawberry puree and vanilla extract until well combined. If the frosting is too thin, add a bit more powdered sugar; if it’s too thick, add a bit more puree or milk to reach your desired consistency.
  • Frost the Cupcakes:
    Once the cupcakes are completely cool, pipe or spread the strawberry frosting onto each one. Garnish with fresh strawberry slices or mango pieces, if desired.

Notes

  • For a more intense mango flavor, you can add a few drops of mango extract to the batter.
  • If strawberries aren’t in season, you can use a strawberry jam for the frosting instead of fresh puree.
