DIRECTIONS
Make Chocolate Cupcakes
Preheat your oven to 350° F.
Grease two 12 cavity cupcake pans with spray oil or shortening. Do not use cupcake liners.
Using your mixer, cream your, butter, or margarine with the vanilla extract. Add your milk, eggs, and apple cider vinegar. Blend this mixture on low for about 1 minute and until well-mixed. Butter will cause the mixture to be chunky.
Add the Inspiration Baking-Chocolate Cake Flour Blend to the wet ingredients and then beat on low until the ingredients are well-mixed.
Scrape the bowl and then blend your cake batter on medium high for 1-2 minutes until it is well blended.
Spoon the cake batter into your prepared baking pans. Use a spatula or spoon to scrape out any remaining batter into the pans.
Put your pans in the oven and bake for 14-18 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the middle of the cake comes out fairly clean.
Cool your pans for 5 minutes on a wire rack. Then carefully remove the cupcakes and place on parchment paper to completely cool.
After cupcakes have cooled, slice in half horizontally. Follow instructions for cupcake cream filling.
Cupcake Cream Filling
Cut the raspberries in half. This will make it easy to stir them into the whipped filling.
Place heavy whipping cream into a large bowl. Whip on high until cream begins to thicken.
Add powdered sugar and continue to beat until peaks form. Add vanilla extract, mixing until incorporated.
Gently fold in raspberries by hand.
Place the raspberry cream filling on the bottom half of each cupcake. Replace the top layer.
Place uncovered in the refrigerator until the Chocolate Drizzle Frosting is ready. This will keep the cream filing cold.
Prepare the Chocolate Drizzle Frosting immediately after this step.
Chocolate Drizzle Frosting
Follow instructions on the back of the Special Dark Hershey's Cocoa® container.
While the frosting is warm, spoon the warm mixture over the top of each cupcake.
Place frosted cupcakes uncovered in your refrigerator for about 20 minutes. Remove them from the refrigerator and cover with plastic wrap until served.
NOTES:
Keep any leftovers in the refrigerator covered.
