RASPBERRY VANILLA CREAM CHEESE CUPCAKES Recipes

I don’t really make a lot of cupcakes but I’m beginning to warm to the idea of filled cupcakes and these Raspberry Vanilla Cream Cheese Cupcakes would change anyone’s mind.

With some leftover raspberry compote and a little leftover cream cheese frosting in the fridge too, I decided to combine two of my favourite dessert components into these sinfully delicious little treats.

The vanilla cake recipe is very good but be sure to use real butter in the recipe and watch them closely so they don’t over bake. Because they are so small, over baking cupcakes happens very quickly and easily so be sure to get them out of the oven the minute they are fully baked.
