Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Raspberry Cupcakes
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a cupcake tin with paper liners.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together softened butter and granulated sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy.
  3. Mix in the eggs one at a time, then pour in the milk and mix until smooth.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt, then gradually add to the wet ingredients.
  5. Slowly add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, stirring gently until just combined.
  6. Gently fold in the fresh raspberries until evenly distributed.
  7. Divide the batter evenly among the prepared liners, filling each about two-thirds full.
  8. Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden and a toothpick comes out clean.
  9. Cool the cupcakes in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
