This recipe was written a while ago and now when I look at it, I can see I have missed mentioning that the cupcake cases should only be half filled. That would make 16 easily instead of 10. Placing cupcake cases in a muffin pan (as mentioned in the recipe) ensures that they hold their shape, they cook slowly (you are right) and they don't dry out. The moisture is sealed in. As you can see from the recipe, the moisture and sweetness in the cupcakes comes from the icing, which balances the flavours beautifully. I make these regularly (I last made them 3 weeks ago) and we eat them straight out of the oven .. without the icing.

They also came out very dry. I am extremely dissapointed in them and will now have to look for another strawberry jam recipe to serve at my friends birthday party tomorrow. i did bake these in nicely decorated cupcake papers, i was told they did not have to go into a muffin pan and that i could bake them on a cookie sheet.. i'm not sure if they cooked faster because of this but in either case they were very dry and dissapointing.
