Melt your Butter and add all of your ingredients for the cakes into a large bowl
Mix everything together (add in a little bit more milk if it’s too thick)
Add in some liners into a muffin/cupcake pan and evenly distribute your mix into them filling them almost all the way to the top
Bake them on 350F/176C for 20-25 minutes
Mix all of your frosting ingredients together
Once your cakes cool top them with your frosting
Cut a bunch of Strawberries on both sides so that they are flat and place them onto your cakes with the large side down
Add a little frosting onto the top of each Strawberry (this acts like glue)
Place a Mini Marshmallow on top
