    Strawberry Cupcakes:

    Preheat oven to 350?F. Line your cupcakes pan with cases or grease
    thoroughly. I like to strain out the pureed strawberries through a
    sieve once. You can skip this step if you do not want to. In a medium
    bowl sift flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Set aside. In a large
    bowl, beat the softened butter with the pureed strawberry until
    mixed. Add the flour mix to the butter mix and blend until fluffy.
    The batter will be thick In another bowl, beat egg whites, milk,
    vanilla extract, and food color until light and fluffy. Fold in the
    whisked egg whites into the batter, divided. Keep mixing gently until
    whole of it is incorporated. Using your cookie/ice-cream scoop, fill
    the cupcake pan about 3/4ths full. Bake 18 to 22 minutes, or until
    toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Mine took 20 minutes.
    Transfer the cupcakes to the rack for cooling. Let cool completely
    before frosting.

    Sour Cream Chocolate Frosting:

    On a double boiler, melt the chocolate chips. Mix the vanilla extract
    and let them cool to room temperature. Cream softened butter and sour
    cream until well blended. Blend in melted and cooled chocolate chips
    until smooth. Add confectioner's sugar and beat well.Add a teaspoon
    of milk at a time until desired, spreadable consistency is reached.
