I think I would prefer a cream cheese frosting also. The amounts on the frosting ingredients could be easily halved, piled it up on each cupcake and still had some leftover. The cake part was delicious and they were very pretty.

I made these this weekend and they were great. I did revise the icing recipe. Instead of using 4 sticks of butter, I only used 2 with approximately 4 cups of powdered sugar. This was way more than enough icing for 24 cupcakes with some left over.

I noticed your review was that they were very “cakey”…I am not quite sure what you mean given that they ARE cake. ?

I have not tried making it ahead but it will probably crust a bit, so I would not. If you make a cream cheese icing that might hold up for a day or so.

I made these tonight for my school’s Prom tomorrow. My students will really enjoy them. Perhaps I messed up, but even cooked at the full time they are very ‘cakey’. They still taste great, though!

If I make this frosting a day or two beforehand, will it still be o.k.?

These were scrumptious!!! They were extremely moist, full of strawberry flavor, and so delicious!
The icing was very good too. I hopped on over to the related blog post and saw that you usually make them with a cream cheese icing so I might try that next time but the buttercream was sinfully yummy.
My husband also gives them 5 mitts.
