  1. On 5-22-09 I was searching for a cupcake recipe that used jam, Google turned up Recipezaar and I found this recipe. It sounded good and I decided to try it. I used buttermilk, and omitted the nutmeg and used canned vanilla frosting to which I added about 1/3 cup of the strawberry jam & I also used cupcake liners. The resulting cupcakes were delicious and made a big hit with my husband's co-workers. Hope Ocean-Ivy sees this...Thanks! Gioia
     
  2. These were good, though I would make several changes next time I made them. The nutmeg flavor was overwhelming (you couldn't taste the strawberries as much as the nutmeg); I think I would leave it out next time. Also, it would be a very good idea to use muffin liners instead of just greasing the pan. The jelly stuck to the tins and made the cupcakes very difficult to remove. That said, these were very fluffy and were a cinch to make. I'm sure that, with a few tweaks, they would be very nice!

Hey there!~ My name is Crystal. I am 19,and living in Florida. I really love to cook,& bake all the time for my family.I just get so much enjoyment out of it! There is just something about the great aroma throughout the house when you bake something,creating special memories in the kitchen! A little more about me: I am a strict vegetarian,(almost vegan!,heh)but of course my whole family is not,so I cook just about anything! Other than cooking-I like to read,surf the net and create art. My favorite websites are: www.ebay.com & www.witchvox.com (I'm wiccan) Of course,the Zaar has become my favorite website! I love how friendly the people are and how interactive this place is!
