Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 cup fresh strawberries, finely chopped
  • 1/2 cup mango, finely chopped
  • 1/4 tsp orange zest (optional)
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1/4 cup mango puree
  • 1/4 cup strawberry puree
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set this mixture aside for later use.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy for about 3 minutes.
  4. Add two large eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in 1 tsp vanilla extract.
  5. Alternate adding the dry flour mixture and 1/4 cup milk, starting and ending with the flour mixture. Mix until just combined.
  6. Gently fold in the chopped strawberries and mango. If using, add the orange zest.
  7. Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake liners, filling each about two-thirds full.
  8. Bake in your preheated oven for about 18–20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Allow the cupcakes to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  10. For the frosting, beat the softened butter until creamy. Gradually add the powdered sugar, mixing well after each addition. Then add the mango puree, strawberry puree, 1 tsp vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Beat until smooth and fluffy.
  11. Once the cupcakes are cooled completely, frost them generously and serve.
