Ingredients
  

For the Cupcake Base
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk can substitute with almond milk
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
For the Raspberry Filling
  • 1 cup fresh raspberries
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
For the Cream Filling
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a cupcake pan with paper liners.
  2. Mix the dry ingredients in a bowl: flour, baking powder, and salt. Whisk them together until well combined.
  3. Cream the butter and sugar in a separate bowl until light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Blend in the lemon zest and vanilla extract.
  5. Combine the wet and dry ingredients gradually, alternating with milk.
  6. Fold in fresh raspberries gently to avoid breaking them up too much.
  7. Scoop the batter into the prepared cupcake liners, filling them about two-thirds full.
  8. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
