Ingredients
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup milk
1 cup white chocolate chips, melted
1 cup cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1/2 cup fresh strawberries, diced
Whipped cream for topping
Additional strawberries for garnish
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
In a bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.
In another bowl, cream the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract and milk.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Fold in the melted white chocolate chips.
Spoon the batter into the prepared cupcake liners, filling each about 2/3 full. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Allow to cool completely.
For the cheesecake filling, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add powdered sugar and mix until combined. Fold in the diced strawberries.
Using a piping bag, fill each cupcake with the cheesecake mixture.
Top with whipped cream and garnish with additional strawberries before serving.
