Instructions:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with cupcake liners.
2. Melt White Chocolate: In a heatproof bowl, melt the white chocolate using a double boiler or microwave. If using a microwave, heat in 20-second intervals, stirring each time until completely melted. Let it cool slightly.
3. Cream Butter and Sugar: Using an electric mixer, cream the butter and sugar together in a large mixing bowl until light and fluffy, about 3-4 minutes.
4. Add Eggs: Beat in the eggs, one at a time, ensuring each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next.
5. Mix in the Melted White Chocolate: Gradually add the slightly cooled melted white chocolate to the butter mixture, mixing well.
6. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the self-raising flour and all-purpose white wheat flour.
7. Alternate Adding Dry Ingredients and Milk: With the mixer on low speed, alternately add the flour mixture and the milk to the butter mixture, starting and ending with the flour mixture. Mix until just combined.
8. Add Heavy Whipping Cream: Gently fold in the heavy whipping cream into the batter using a spatula until well combined.
9. Fill Cupcake Liners: Spoon the batter evenly into the prepared cupcake liners, filling each liner about two-thirds full.
10. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean.
11. Cool: Allow the cupcakes to cool in the tin for about 5 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
12. Optional - Garnish with Raspberries: Once cooled, you can top each cupcake with a fresh raspberry for a delightful burst of flavor.

White chocolate & raspberry cupcakes FAQ:

What is the baking time for these cupcakes?

Bake the cupcakes in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes. They are done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

How should I store leftover cupcakes?

Can I substitute white chocolate with dark or milk chocolate?

What pan size is recommended for this recipe?

This recipe is designed for a standard 12-cup muffin tin. Ensure you line each cup with cupcake liners before filling them with batter.

How do I know the cupcakes are done baking?

The cupcakes are done when they are golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If the toothpick has moist batter, continue baking a few minutes longer.

Tips:

- Ensure that the butter is at room temperature before starting to make it easier to cream with the sugar.

- Mix the batter until just combined to avoid overworking it, which can result in dense cupcakes.

- Gently fold in the raspberries to prevent them from getting mashed and to distribute them evenly throughout the cupcakes.

- Use a toothpick to test the doneness of the cupcakes; it should come out clean or with just a few crumbs when they're fully baked.

- Allow the cupcakes to cool completely before frosting to prevent the frosting from melting.
