How to cook deliciously - Strawberry Shortcake Cupcakes

1. Stage

Cupcakes: Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Line 12 standard muffin cups with paper liners. In a medium bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. In a large bowl with mixer on medium, beat butter and sugar until light and creamy. Beat in eggs, 1 at a time, then vanilla. With mixer on low, alternately beat in flour mixture and sour cream until combined. Continue to beat on medium until batter is thick and smooth.

2. Stage

Spoon batter into a Ziploc bag. Snip a 1/2-inch corner from the bag and fill the liners slightly less than two-thirds full. Bake 24 to 26 minutes, or until lightly golden and a pick inserted in the center of a cupcake comes out clean. Cool in pan on a wire rack 5 minutes; remove cupcakes from pan and cool completely.

3. Stage

Topping: Toss strawberries several times in a bowl with sugar and lemon juice until very syrupy. In a large bowl, beat cream, confectioners' sugar, and vanilla until soft peaks form.

4. Stage

Use a skewer to poke several holes into top of each cupcake. Spoon some syrup from bowl over top, allowing it to absorb into cupcakes. Top with sliced berries and a dollop of cream. Arrange a few sliced berries in cream and drizzle with remaining strawberry syrup.
