Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit and fill the pan with cupcake liners.

Whisk together flour, baking powder, soda and salt. Set aside.

In a large bowl, beat the eggs, add sugar and continue beating for about 30 seconds.

Add oil and vanilla extract, beat until well combined.

Gradually add dry ingredients alternating with buttermilk until combined.

Beat until well combined. The batter will be thin.

Pour the batter into the cupcake tins, filling them up until they are approximately 2/3 of the way full.

Bake for 12-14 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Cool the cupcakes completely before adding the filling and topping with frosting.

Toss together the diced strawberries and the granulated sugar.  Let this mixture rest while the cupcakes are cooling.

Once the cupcakes have cooled completely, use a paring knife to carefully cut a small hole into the center of each cupcake. Gently cut the bottom off of each cupcake insert to make the plugs for the cupcakes.

Place approximately 1 tablespoon of the filling mixture into each cupcake and then top with the cupcake plug and gently press it down to make it level.

În a medium size mixing bowl, mix together the pudding mix, confectioner’s sugar and milk with a hand held mixer until combined (30 seconds to 1 minute).

Let the mixture sit for a few minutes until the pudding mixture thickens (3-5 minutes).

Then gently fold in the Cool Whip until combined.

Pipe the frosting on top of each cupcake into a piping bag fitting with a large star tip.

Top with a small amount of the diced strawberries.

Then the cupcakes are ready to serve and enjoy!
