Follow these simple steps to make your Strawberry Cupcakes:

1. Preheat Your Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
3. Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy.
4. Add Eggs: Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
5. Incorporate Wet Ingredients: Mix in the milk and vanilla extract until combined.
6. Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
7. Fold in Strawberries: Gently fold in the chopped strawberries, ensuring they’re evenly distributed throughout the batter.
8. Fill Cupcake Liners: Spoon the batter into the prepared cupcake liners, filling each about two-thirds full.
9. Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
