Best Cookie Cupcakes With Raspberry Fluff Frosting Recipes

CHOCOLATE CUPCAKES WITH CREAMY RASPBERRY FROSTING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C). Line a 12-cup muffin pan with cupcake liners. Line a second pan with 2 liners - this recipe makes about 14 cupcakes. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, whisk the cocoa powder, flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together until thoroughly combined. Set aside. In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs, sugar, brown sugar, oil, and vanilla together until completely smooth. Pour half of the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Then half of the buttermilk. Gently stir - about 5 stirs. Repeat with the remaining wet ingredients and buttermilk. Stir until *just* combined; do not overmix. The batter won't be very thick.
• Pour/spoon the batter into the liners - fill only halfway to avoid spilling over the sides. Bake in batches for 18-19 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool completely before frosting. For around 30 mini cupcakes, bake for about 11-13 minutes, same oven temperature.
• Beat softened butter on medium speed for about 3-4 minutes until completely smooth and creamy. Add the confectioners' sugar, cream, vanilla extract, and salt with the mixer running. Increase to high speed and beat for 1 minute. Add the raspberry preserves and beat until thick and creamy, about 2 full minutes. Add more confectioners' sugar if frosting is too thin, is separating (due to the fruity jam) or looks too wet. And then add more salt to offset added sweetness.
• Frost cooled cupcakes however you'd like. I simply used a small frosting knife to frost the cupcakes. Top with fresh raspberries if desired.

CHOCOLATE RASPBERRY CUPCAKES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line muffin pans with Reynolds® StayBrite® Baking Cups.
• Stir together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter with an electric mixer on medium to high speed for 30 seconds. Gradually add sugar, about 1/4 cup at a time, beating on medium speed until combined. Scrape sides of bowl; beat about 2 minutes more or until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the vanilla. Alternately add the flour mixture and milk to the butter mixture, beating on low speed after each addition just until combined. Beat on medium to high speed for 20 seconds more.
• Spoon batter into prepared muffin cups, filling each one-half to two-thirds full. Use the back of a spoon to smooth out batter in cups.
• Bake about 18 minutes or until a wooden toothpick inserted in centers comes out clean. Cool cupcakes in muffin cups on wire racks for 5 minutes. Remove cupcakes from muffin pans. Cool completely on wire racks.
• Use a small paring knife to remove a cone-shape piece of cupcake, going down only about one-third to one-half of the way into the cupcake. Fill each with 1 teaspoon preserves. Top with the removed portion of the cupcake, then with Raspberry Frosting and fresh raspberries.
• Raspberry Frosting: Beat cream cheese and butter in a large mixing bowl with an electric mixer on medium to high speed until light and fluffy. Gradually add powdered sugar, beating until smooth. Gently fold in raspberry preserves.

RASPBERRY FROSTING

Steps:

• Puree berries with granulated sugar in a food processor until smooth. Pass mixture through a fine sieve into a bowl, pressing on solids to extract as much liquid as possible.
• In another bowl, beat butter on medium-high speed until pale and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Reduce speed to medium and add confectioners' sugar, 1/2 cup at a time, beating well after each addition and scraping down sides of bowl as needed. Beat in berry puree. Frosting can be stored in refrigerator up to 2 days; bring to room temperature and beat on low speed until smooth again before using.

RASPBERRY CREAM CUPCAKES

Steps:

• Line 18 muffin cups with muffin papers. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Using an electric mixer, beat the cake mix, water, egg whites, melted butter, almond extract, and vanilla extract in a large bowl for 2 minutes, or until the batter is well blended. Using about 1/3 cup of batter for each cupcake, spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups.
• Bake the cupcakes until they are very pale golden on top, about 15 minutes. Cool the cupcakes completely on a cooling rack.
• Using a fork, coarsely mash 1 1/2 containers of raspberries in a medium bowl. Beat the cream and 1/3 cup of powdered sugar in a large bowl until firm peaks form. Fold the mashed raspberries into the whipped cream.
• Remove the muffin papers from the cupcakes and cut the tops off of each cupcake. Spoon the raspberry whipped cream atop the cupcake bottoms. Place the cupcake tops on the cupcakes. Dust with more powdered sugar and serve with the remaining berries.

GOLDEN VANILLA CUPCAKES WITH RASPBERRY BUTTERCREAM FROSTING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325°F. Line a cupcake pan with 9 paper liners and fill the empty cups half full of water to prevent scorching.
• To prepare the cupcakes, using an electric mixer beat together the canola oil, agave nectar, and eggs. Add the yogurt mixture, vanilla extract, and lemon zest. Beat again.
• Mix the garbanzo bean flour, potato starch, tapioca flour, xanthan gum, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large bowl. Slowly add the flour mixture to the yogurt mixture and mix on low speed until just combined. Spoon the batter into the prepared cupcake pan and bake for 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean. Cool the cupcakes completely on a cooling rack.
• To prepare the frosting, use an electric mixer to beat the butter until smooth. Add the agave nectar and beat again until fluffy. Add the raspberry jam and beat well. Add the dry milk, vanilla extract, and food coloring if using. Beat on high speed until light and fluffy, scraping down the bowl as necessary. You will have about 2 cups of frosting.
• Frost the cooled cupcakes liberally and garnish with fresh raspberries if desired.

COOKIE CUPCAKES WITH RASPBERRY FLUFF FROSTING RECIPE - (2.5/5)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350. Line 12 muffin cups with papers. Melt 2 tbsp butter, let cool. In a large bowl, whisk together cocoa powder, flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Lightly beat egg and yolk and add melted butter, buttermilk, vanilla and 1/2 cup hot water. Whisk until smooth. Add to dry ingredients. Spoon 1 tbsp batter into each muffin cup and top with a cookie. Top with 1 tbsp batter. Bake 15 minutes, rotating pan halfway. Let cool on wire rack. In a mixer bowl, beat 2 sticks butter and jam together until smooth. Add marshmallow and powdered sugar and beat until smooth, 3 minutes. Pipe onto cooled cupcakes.

SOFT SUGAR COOKIES WITH RASPBERRY FROSTING

Steps:

• Make the cookies: In a large bowl, using a spoon, cream the butter, cream cheese, sugar and salt until smooth and fluffy. Add the eggs and vanilla extract, and whisk to incorporate some air and to dissolve the sugar crystals, about 1 minute. Stir in the flour and baking powder until just incorporated.
• Heat oven to 350 degrees and line two rimmed sheet pans with parchment paper. Using two spoons or a cookie scooper, plop out 2-tablespoon/50-gram rounds spaced a couple of inches apart. (You should get about 7 to 8 cookies per sheet pan.) Place the sheet pans in the freezer for 15 to 20 minutes until the dough is no longer sticky and easier to handle.
• While the dough chills, make the frosting: In a fine-mesh sieve set over a medium bowl, sift the ground raspberries, using a spoon to help pass them through, until most of the ruby-red powder is in the bowl and most of the seeds are left behind in the sieve. (Discard the seeds.)
• To the bowl, add the 1 cup butter, confectioners' sugar, vanilla extract and salt and, with an electric hand mixer, mix on low speed until the butter absorbs the sugar. Then, turn the speed up to high and beat until the frosting doubles in size, about 2 minutes, scraping down the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula to ensure all the ingredients are incorporated. Transfer the frosting to a small container, cover tightly, and set aside. (You should have about 2 cups of frosting.)
• Remove the sheet pans from the freezer. Roll the chilled dough into even balls and flatten them slightly with your fingers so they're about 2 inches wide and 1 inch high. Bake the cookies for 13 to 15 minutes, rotating the pans and switching racks halfway through, or until they no longer look wet on top, are still light in color and spring back to the touch. They will puff up and crack slightly. Let cool completely on the sheet pan. (They will continue to cook as they sit.)
• Using a butter knife or offset spatula, frost each cooled cookie with the raspberry frosting and adorn with the sprinkles.
