Categories: Cakes, Chocolate, Fruits
Yield: 20 Cupcakes

3/4 c Unsweetened cocoa powder
1 1/2 c A-P flour
1 1/2 c Sugar
1 1/2 ts Baking soda
3/4 ts Baking powder

1/2 lb Softened butter
4 c Confectioners' sugar
4 tb Unsweetened cocoa powder;
- sifted
MMMMM------------------------STRAWBERRIES-----------------------------
20 Strawberries (1 per cupcake)
Bacardi 151 rum
CUPCAKES: Set oven @ 350ºF/175ºC.
Line muffin tin with cupcake papers and set aside.
Sift together cocoa, flour, sugar, baking soda, baking
powder and salt into a large bowl. Add eggs, water,
heavy cream, oil and vanilla. Mix with a hand held mixer
until smooth.
Divide batter among muffin cups, filling each half full.
Bake for 20 minutes. Let cool before frosting.
FROSTING: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with whisk
attachment, cream together sugar, cocoa and butter;
beginning on low speed then increase to high. Beat until
fluffy and lightened in color. Transfer mixture to a
piping bag fitted with a decorative tip. Frost cupcakes.
STRAWBERRIES: Hollow the strawberries carefully. If you
pierce the side of the strawberry accidentally, start
with a new one. Since you'll be setting the liquor
aflame, it is important that the strawberry is
leak-proof.
Set one strawberry atop each frosted cupcake. Fill
strawberries with liquor just before lighting. If you
need to light them all at once, (say, for a party) use a
turkey baster to quickly fill all the strawberries and a
grill lighter in lieu of matches.
