  • 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

  3. Add the softened butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and buttermilk to the dry ingredients and mix until smooth.
  4. Fill each cupcake liner halfway with the batter.
  5. Place a few raspberries in the center of each cupcake and cover with more batter until the liners are three-quarters full.

  • For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate cocoa powder.
  • Make sure the cupcakes are completely cool before frosting to prevent melting.
