  • 250g/8oz icing sugar

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 180C/350F/Gas 4. Line a 12-hole muffin tin with paper cases.
  • Place all of the cupcake ingredients, except the raspberries, into a food processor and mix until well combined. Add more milk, if necessary, to get the mixture to a soft drop consistency.
  • Put one spoonful of the mixture into the cases, then follow with 2-3 raspberries, and another spoonful of mixture.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until risen and golden-brown. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool for 10 minutes.

  • Decorate the cupcakes with the icing and top each cupcake with a raspberry.
