Instructions
Bake the cupcakes:
- Prep: Mix together the milk and white vinegar in a small bowl to make buttermilk. Place this in the fridge for 15 minutes for the milk to slightly curdle. Then you’ll have buttermilk!
- Sift the cake flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and skim milk powder into a bowl and mix together. In a separate bowl, combine the jam, buttermilk and vanilla extract. Set both bowls aside.
- In a large bowl, whip the butter and sugar together with an electric mixer until pale and fluffy. Then add the eggs and egg whites one at a time, mixing after each addition. Add the flour mixture to the egg mixture in 3 additions, alternating with the buttermilk mixture (flour>buttermilk>flour>buttermilk>flour), gently mixing after each addition. Then add the fresh raspberries and pink food colouring and mix until just combined.
- Pour the batter into a muffin pan lined with cupcake liners. Bake at 350F for 20 minutes or until fully cooked. Transfer the cupcakes to a cooling rack and allow them to fully cool.
Make the buttercream:
- Cream the butter in a large mixing bowl until it’s light and fluffy. Add the vanilla extract, and mix together. Add the confectioner’s sugar 1 cup at a time, beating with each addition. Add the jam and mix well.
Decorate the cupcakes:
- Make a hole in the center of each cupcake and fill it with raspberry jam. Place the buttercream in a piping bag fitted with a round tip and pipe it into a swirl on top of each cupcake. Top with a raspberry and enjoy!
