Ingredients
8 ounces mascarpone cheese (about 1 cup), softened
2 egg whites
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 box white cake mix
1 cup water
1/3 cup frozen strawberries, thawed and drained
2 1/2 cups powdered sugar
Directions
Special equipment: 4 mini muffin tins and 48 mini muffin paper cupcake liners
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line the mini tins with paper liners.
In a large bowl combine the mascarpone cheese, egg whites and vegetable oil.
Using a hand mixer, beat the ingredients until combined and creamy. Add the
cake mix and water and mix until smooth, about 3 minutes. Fill the mini cups to
just below the rim and bake until puffed and golden, about 18 to 20 minutes.
Remove from the oven, let cool slightly in the tin then transfer the cupcakes
to a wire rack.
Meanwhile, puree the strawberries in a blender or small food processor. Place
the powdered sugar in a medium bowl. Pour in the strawberry puree and whisk
until smooth. Top the cooled cupcakes with the strawberry glaze. Let the
cupcakes sit for a few minutes for the glaze to firm up, then serve.
