Raspberry and Chocolate

Raspberry and chocolate is one of my favorite flavor combinations… or anything with raspberry for that matter. So below is another recipe that may get added to the regular rotation: dark chocolate cupcakes with raspberry cream cheese frosting. The frosting is one I make often now. I just love it!! It’s made with real raspberries – pureed, strained, and then beaten into a cream cheese frosting. It is NOT made with raspberry cream cheese. I didn’t even realize this possibility until someone asked me recently. To finish, I piped on the frosting after chilling briefly, making sure to work quickly as my hand normally heats up any sort of butter-based frosting when working with a piping bag. Then I decorated with a simple white fondant flower rather than my usual raspberry. The cupcakes turned out pretty cute for being so simple, if I do say so myself.
