My mother's personal favorite--chunks of smooth white chocolate and tart raspberries floating in a tender vanilla batter with a sugared topping. What's not to love?!

Time 42m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon sugar
1 large egg
1 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon baking powder
2 cups flour
1 tablespoon flour
8 ounces white chocolate, chopped
1/2 cup fresh raspberry

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400*F.
  • Grease 12 standard-size muffin cups, or line with paper wrappers.
  • In a medium bowl, using an electric mixer on medium speed, cream together the butter and sugar until smooth.
  • Add the egg, milk, and vanilla; blend well.
  • In a large bowl, combine the baking powder, 2 cups of the flour, and the white chocolate; whisk to combine.
  • Gradually add to the butter mixture; stirring just until combined.
  • Gently fold in the raspberries--the batter will be slightly lumpy.
  • Fill the muffin cups 3/4 full of batter.
  • In a small bowl, combine the 1 Tbsp. of flour and sugar; mix thoroughly.
  • Dust muffin tops with the sugar mixture.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the center of a muffin springs back when lightly pressed.
  • Cool for 5 minutes in the tins; carefully transfer muffins to wire racks and cool further.
  • Serve warm or cool; store in an airtight container at room temperature.
