Ingredients
  

  • 1 box chocolate cake mix
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/3 cup vegetable oil
  • 2 containers strawberry frosting
  • 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 3/4 cup heavy cream warmed
  • 1/2 cup white chocolate chips melted

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line two 12-cup muffin tins with paper liners and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, combine the cake mix, eggs, water and oil. Stir to evenly combine until lump-free. Divide among the prepared cupcake pans, filling each about 3/4 of the way up. Bake for about 18 to 20 minutes or until a toothpick, inserted in the center, comes out clean. Remove from oven and allow to cool down completely.
  • Pour the frosting into a pastry bag (fitted with a circle tip) or into a large food storage bag, cutting the end off, and pipe out frosting onto each cupcake. Place in the freezer for about half an hour to allow to set.
  • Place the semi-sweet chocolate chips into a medium bowl and pour the hot cream over it. Allow to sit, untouched, for about 3 minutes and then stir until melted, and glossy. Dip the chilled cupcakes into the ganache. Drizzle with melted white chocolate. Store in fridge and serve cold or at room temperature.
