Preparation

Steps

While the cupcakes cool, prepare the Strawberry Cream Cheese Frosting. In a bowl, mix the cream cheese, butter, Welch's Natural Strawberry Spread and icing sugar on low speed until combined and thick. Transfer to the fridge for 30 minutes before icing.
When ready to ice the cupcakes, apply using a knife, or for more decorative cupcakes, transfer frosting to a piping bag. Frost the cupcakes and top with freshly sliced strawberries.
