Instructions
Creating Raspberry Rose Cupcakes is a delightful process. Follow these simple steps to ensure your cupcakes turn out perfectly:
1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a cupcake pan with cupcake liners.
2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
3. Cream Butter and Sugar: In another bowl, beat the softened butter and granulated sugar together until light and fluffy.
4. Add Eggs and Flavorings: Add the eggs, vanilla extract, and rose water to the butter mixture. Mix until well combined.
5. Combine Mixtures: Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk. Mix until just combined; do not overmix.
6. Fold in Raspberries: Gently fold in the fresh raspberries, being careful not to break them apart too much.
7. Divide Batter: Evenly distribute the batter into the prepared cupcake liners, filling each about two-thirds full.
8. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
9. Cool: Remove the cupcakes from the oven and let them cool in the pan for 5 minutes. Then, transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
10. Make the Frosting: In a bowl, beat together the softened butter and powdered sugar. Add rose water and milk until you reach your desired consistency.
11. Frost the Cupcakes: Once the cupcakes are completely cool, use a piping bag or a knife to frost each cupcake with the rose-flavored frosting.
12. Garnish: Top each cupcake with a fresh raspberry for a beautiful presentation.
