These Strawberry Crunch Cupcakes are my take on the classic strawberry crunch ice cream bars we all ate as kids. They are filled with nostalgic memories and bright strawberry flavor. They are vanilla and strawberry Jell-O cupcakes, topped with vanilla buttercream, and a delicious strawberry crunch layer.
