Too bad about the added strawberries; I've seen recipes where they've added cream cheese mix with jam to the center of their cupcakes and those all turned out fine.

These look yummy, even if they didn't turn out quite as planned. How can chocolate and strawberries ever be bad? I was also going to suggest coating the chips in flour.

I've got christmas, valentines, and st. patricks day so far. I hate spending like $3 on paper thingies but I doubt I've paid more than $100 for any of the packs. what if you baked the cupcakes till almost done, took them out of the oven and then shoved the strawberries and chocolate in the middle? it'd be a nice surprise and any nasty looking tops would be covered with frosting. dude the best time to stock up on mini paper muffin things is at the end of holiday seasons at target.

This works for nuts and blueberries too. It seems to me that strawberries would release a lot of moisture and maybe that's why your cupcakes didn't rise as expected?

Although, for the life of me I can't figure out why it would have gone wrong. This is exactly the sort of thing I’m always worried about when I start to bake.

Strawberry jam would def. work better than strawberries. With the chips, if you try cooking them a little to thicken the batter then add chips you should be fine.
