Strawberry Shortcake

Continuing the theme of stuffed treats from my most recent post, I wanted to share these special surprise cupcakes I made for a friend of mine.  I've already professed my love of cake, and that I like it plain and simple without lots of extra bells and whistles.  Well, in an attempt to please my strawberry-shortcake-loving-friend, I decided to use that as an inspiration for these cupcakes.

These moist vanilla cupcakes are stuffed with chunky strawberry preserves, and topped with a light and fluffy buttercream (made with plenty of whipping cream!).  I have to admit, I really liked them... even though they were more glitzy than the kind of cake I usually like.  And perfect for summer!
