Cool in pans 10 minutes before removing to wire racks to cool completely., In a large bowl, beat butter and vanilla until blended. Beat in confectioners' sugar alternately with enough cream to reach spreading consistency. Beat on medium-high for 5 minutes until fluffy. Place 1-1/2 cups of the frosting in a small bowl; stir in spreadable fruit.

Transfer strawberry frosting to bag. With a metal or wooden skewer, poke a hole through bottom of paper liner. Insert tip through hole; pipe some of the strawberry filling into cupcakes. Using another pastry bag and a #12 round pastry tip, pipe peanut butter frosting over cupcakes. If desired, pipe remaining strawberry frosting over tops; sprinkle with additional chips.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 F. Line one 12-cup standard muffin tin with paper cupcake liners. Gently spray the liners with baking spray and set aside.
• Sift the flour, baking powder and salt over a large piece of paper. In a large bowl, cream the butter and granulated sugar with a hand mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs, egg yolk and vanilla. Reduce the speed to low and scrape down the sides of the bowl. Pour in the milk and continue to mix until smooth (the batter may look curdled at first but will smooth out). Pick up the paper with the dry ingredients and gradually pour into the wet ingredients. Continue to mix just until blended.
• Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared tin, filling the cups about three-quarters full. Bake until the tops of the cupcakes spring back to the touch and are not too golden, about 20 minutes. Cool in the tin for 15 minutes, and then allow to cool completely on a wire rack before filling, frosting or decorating.
