Instructions
 

Prepare Vanilla Cupcakes

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and line a cupcake tray with liners.
  • Cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  • Mix in flour, baking powder, salt, and milk until just combined.
  • Fill cupcake liners evenly and bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  • Cool completely on a wire rack.

Make Raspberry Cream Filling

  • Whip cold heavy cream until soft peaks form.
  • Gradually fold in ground freeze-dried raspberries until thick and smooth.

Assemble Cupcakes

  • Core the center of each cupcake using a corer or knife, about halfway deep.
  • Fill a piping bag with raspberry cream and pipe into the cored cupcakes.
  • Frost cupcakes with desired frosting using a piping bag or knife.

Notes

  • Use room temperature ingredients for best texture.
  • Freeze-dried raspberries enhance flavor without adding moisture.
