STRAWBERRY MARGARITA CUPCAKE RECIPE

One of my dear friends is moving a few hours away, so we threw a goodbye party for her last weekend. I wanted to try a fun cupcake recipe for the occasion and since she loves Margaritas, I picked a Strawberry Margarita Cupcake Recipe. The cupcakes were a huge hit and I’ll definitely make them again in the future.

CUPCAKE INGREDIENTS
Boxed cake mix (I use this mix)

• 1 cup strawberry margarita/daiquiri mix (liquid)
• 1/3 cup vegetable oil
• 1/4 cup tequila*
• 3 eggs 

Cupcake Directions

• Preheat over to 350°(325° for dark pans).  Line muffin or cupcake pan with 24 cupcake liner cups. I like these liners.
• In a large bowl, combine cupcake ingredients. Mix on low for about 30 seconds until ingredients are combined, scraping the sides of the bowl occasionally (or use a cool beater like this). Switch mixer to high for two minutes until batter is thick and creamy.
• Spoon batter into cupcake liners.
• Bake for about 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the largest cupcake comes out clean. Let cupcakes cool completely before frosting.
• To make non-alcoholic cupcakes, substitute an additional 1/4 cup of the margarita mix instead of tequila

Strawberry Margarita Frosting

• 10 Tbsp butter, slightly firm but not cold
• 10 oz cream cheese, cold
• 2 to 3 tablespoons strawberry margarita/daiquiri mix
• 5 cups powdered sugar
• In a large bowl, mix butter and cream cheese together on medium speed.
• Whip until fluffy, approximately one minute.
