Description

Delicious mini raspberry cream cupcakes topped with whipped cream and fresh raspberries.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tbsp powdered sugar
  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
  • Fresh raspberries for topping
  • Extra powdered sugar for dusting

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a mini cupcake pan with paper liners.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  3. Cream Butter and Sugar: In another bowl, beat the softened butter and granulated sugar until creamy and fluffy.
  4. Add Wet Ingredients: Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture and beat until well combined.
  5. Combine Ingredients: Gradually mix the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, alternating with milk, until the batter is smooth.
  6. Fill Cupcake Liners: Fill each liner about 2/3 full with the batter.
  7. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  8. Cool: Allow cupcakes to cool completely on a wire rack.
  9. Whip Cream: In a chilled bowl, beat the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until soft peaks form.
  10. Pipe Cream: Using a piping bag, pipe a dollop of whipped cream onto each cooled cupcake.
  11. Add Raspberries: Top each cupcake with a fresh raspberry.
  12. Dust with Sugar: Lightly dust with extra powdered sugar for garnish.

Notes

  • Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for best results.
  • If you don’t have a piping bag, you can use a plastic bag with the corner snipped off.
  • Use a gentle hand when folding the dry ingredients into the wet to keep the batter light and airy.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
