Totally decadent and not good for you at all, but so incredibly yummy. I've made these cupcakes a few times now, but only for special occasions. I don't think I could ever go past the combination of dark chocolate and raspberries.
Ingredients :
400g Dark Chocolate
400g Raspberries (or a mix of different berries if you can't get hold of enough raspberries)
240g Butter
3/4 cup or 1 cup Sugar (depending on your sweet tooth)
1 cup Plain Flour
3 Tbspn Self Raising Flour
4 Tbspn Cocoa Powder
2 Eggs
Method :
1. Melt chocolate, butter, raspberries and sugar in a heavy bottomed saucepan on a very low heat. Stir constantly until just melted. Do not allow it to get too hot otherwise the chocolate will burn and become lumpy. It should become a syrupy jam.
2. Allow to cool slightly.
3. Sift flours and cocoa powder.
4. Mix eggs, and melted chocolate raspberry mix into the flour. Add a tiny bit of milk if the mix is too dry.
5. Pour into paper cupcake pans. They will only rise slightly, fill to approx 3/4 full.
6. Bake in the over at 170 deg C for 45 min. Check at around 40min, as you don't want them to become dry. They are yummiest when a bit gooey inside.
7. Serve them warm with cream or icecream and fresh berries.
