Instructions

White Chocolate Ganache Frosting

• Add white chocolate and cream to a large microwave safe bowl. Microwave for 20 seconds at a time, mixing each time until smooth. Cover with plastic wrap and set aside at room temperature.

Cupcakes

• Preheat a fan-forced oven to 160C (320F) or 180C (356F) for a conventional oven. Line a cupcake tin with cupcake liners.
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, add the gluten free flour, baking powder, caster sugar and salt. Turn mixer on low speed and allow it to mix for a couple minutes to help everything combine well (alternatively you may do this by sifting the ingredients together). Add the softened butter and let it mix until it resembles a fine sand like texture.
• Next, add warm milk, eggs, yogurt, Melted white chocolate, oil and vanilla extract in a large jug and whisk well.
• Add wet ingredients to dry ingredients in a slow and steady stream until no dry ingredients are visible. Scrape down the bowl and mix for another 20 seconds.
• Fill each cupcake with 1 tbsp raspberries and then fill each liner 3/4 of the way with batter. Using an ice cream scoop to transfer the batter into the cupcake liners makes this a quick and easy process otherwise you can use two tablespoons).
• Bake for 20-25 min or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Allow them to cool completely on a wire cooling rack before frosting. The bottoms of the cupcakes may appear very soft, but as they cool, they will firm up a little.
• Fit the end of a piping bag with a 1M tip and frost in a swirl. Sprinkle with crushed freeze-dried raspberries.

Notes

Cupcakes can be stored in an airtight container for up to three days.
