Description

Indulge in the rich chocolate and tangy raspberry flavors of these molten cupcakes, perfect for celebrations or a sweet treat anytime.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup dark chocolate, chopped
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup fresh raspberries
  • Powdered sugar for dusting

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine chopped dark chocolate and unsalted butter. Heat in short bursts, stirring between intervals until melted and smooth.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk together granulated sugar and eggs until fluffy. Gradually pour in the melted chocolate mixture while whisking continuously to avoid scrambling the eggs.
  4. Gently fold in all-purpose flour until just combined; do not overmix.
  5. Carefully fold fresh raspberries into the batter, avoiding excessive crushing.
  6. Pour the batter into each cupcake liner about three-quarters full. Bake for approximately 12-15 minutes, until edges are firm but centers remain soft. Let cool slightly before dusting with powdered sugar and serving.
