Start by mixing up thě cupcakě battěr. You don’t něěd a fancy stand mixěr, a hand mixěr will work just fině. Bakě thě cupcakěs for 18-20 minutěs at 350 děgrěěs or until thě tops spring back whěn touchěd. Whilě thě cupcakěs arě cooling you’ll want to crush thě chocolatě sandwich cookiěs (scrapě thě crěam out and discard) and dip your strawběrriěs. ????
