Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line muffin pans with Reynolds® StayBrite® Baking Cups. (5 minutes)

02

Step

In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. (3 minutes)

03

Step

In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter and sugar with an electric mixer on medium speed until light and fluffy. This should take about 2-3 minutes. (5 minutes)

04

Step

Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla. (2 minutes)

05

Step

Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, beating until just combined. Be careful not to overmix. (5 minutes)

06

Step

Spoon batter into prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full. (5 minutes)

07

Step

Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a wooden toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. (20 minutes)

08

Step

Cool cupcakes in muffin cups on wire racks for 5 minutes, then remove and cool completely on wire racks. (5 minutes)

09

Step

Once cooled, use a small paring knife or a cupcake corer to remove a small cone-shaped piece from the top of each cupcake, about one-third to one-half of the way down. (10 minutes)

10

Step

Fill each cupcake with 1 teaspoon of raspberry preserves. (5 minutes)

11

Step

Replace the removed portion of the cupcake on top of the preserves. (2 minutes)

12

Step

Prepare the Raspberry Frosting: In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese and butter until smooth and creamy. Gradually add powdered sugar, beating until light and fluffy. Gently fold in raspberry preserves. (10 minutes)

13

Step

Frost the cupcakes with the raspberry frosting and garnish with fresh raspberries. (10 minutes)

For a richer chocolate flavor, use dark cocoa powder.
Ensure the butter and cream cheese are properly softened for a smooth frosting.
If the frosting is too thick, add a tablespoon of milk at a time until desired consistency is reached.
Store frosted cupcakes in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

    I found the frosting a bit too sweet, so I reduced the amount of powdered sugar by a half cup and it was perfect.
