Method
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Lightly grease a muffin pan with cooking spray, or use paper liners for easy cleanup.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the unsweetened cocoa powder, all-purpose flour, and salt until combined. Set aside.
- In a larger bowl, mix the melted unsalted butter and sugar until well incorporated. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined. Be careful not to overmix!
- Gently stir in the semi-sweet chocolate chips and half of the fresh raspberries.
- Ladle the batter evenly into each muffin cup, filling them about two-thirds full. Top with the remaining fresh raspberries, pressing them slightly into the batter.
Baking
- Bake your cupcakes in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the tops are set but the centers remain slightly soft.
Cooling and Serving
- Once done, remove the cupcakes from the oven and let them cool for about 5 minutes in the pan.
- Gently transfer them to a wire rack to cool slightly before serving.
Notes
Ensure ingredients are at room temperature for even mixing. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or refrigerate for about a week. Reheat in the microwave for 10-15 seconds to keep the gooey center.
