Polkadot Cupcakes

I wanted to eat something good, and that would go great with a tall glass of milk, so I made these just-becuase-cupcakes.

I made these vanilla cupcakes with vanilla frosting and red polka dot sprinkles. The thing that makes these special is the strawberry and mascarpone cheese filling in the center. Now people that know me well know that I’m not the greatest fan of cheese, but mascarpone cheese is not really ‘cheesy’ at all. Its a very very light, creamy, milky, soft cheese spread. I think it tastes incredibly light and delicate and classy (like something you would have during afternoon tea or something)…definitely nothing CHEESY about it! :)
