Directions
Preparation:30min  ›  Cook:30min  ›  Extra time:2hours chilling  ›  Ready in:3hours 

1. Using a skewer or chopsticks poke holes in the cupcakes to allow the jam to penetrate in.
2. Place the jam in a bowl and microwave until warmed and liquidy. If you don't like seeds now is an opportunity to strain it.
3. Using a brush or spoon, coat the cupcakes making sure the jam remains liquidy enough to go down the holes.

Variation in the Outcome

There are a lot of factors that can effect the outcome and you may want to experiment with different combinations to get the outcome you want.
- Temperature of the cake effects how much it absorbs
- Temperature and viscosity of the jam impacts how much is absorbed
- Size of the poke holes
