Strawberry Hi-Hat Cupcakes

When a cupcake recipe calls for enough frosting to measure in inches, I'm in.

When a cupcake recipe calls for dipping said frosting in melted chocolate, I'm in trouble.

Cupcakes, take me away.

Strawberry Cake:

1 box white cake mix
4 eggs
1 cup vegetable oil
1 cup sweetened strawberries in juice
1 small package strawberry jell-o (combined with 1/2 c. water)

Combine all ingredients and blend for 2-3 minutes. Pour into cupcake pan and bake at 350 for 20 minutes.

The light, fluffy frosting recipe is Martha's and I found it here.

I used a 12 oz. bag of white chocolate chips (instead of semi-sweet) and followed her instructions for dipping.
