Our ingredients for today:

sugar
flour
cocoa powder
raspberries
butter
eggs
milk
baking powder
salt
vanilla

So basic ingredients and a simple recipe. You can either use fresh or frozen raspberries and I think it works with other berries too!

So grab a bowl and let's start!

RECIPE:

Ingredients:

For the chocolate muffin
2 eggs, room temperature
113g butter, room temperature (1 Stick)
210g flour (about 2 cups)
30g raw cocoa powder (2 tbsp.)
200g granulated sugar (1 cup)
vanilla extract
pinch of salt
123g milk, room temperature (1/2 cup)
For the ermine raspberry frosting
40g flour
70g granulated sugar
200g milk
60g raspberries (fresh or frozen)
226g butter

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 180°C/356°F.
For our muffin dough, we start by creaming butter and sugar until fluffy. Mix until creamy and airy for about 5 minutes.
Then add the eggs, one at a time. Cream until everything is well combined, also add vanilla.
Mix flour, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder in a separate bowl.
Sift the dry ingredients alternately with the milk and fill your dough in the muffin tins. Sprinkle the muffin top with sugar.
Bake for about 30 minutes.
Let them cool completely.
Meanwhile, cut the butter into little cubes and put them in a warm place to soften.
In a pot, put the flour, sugar, and raspberries, then slowly add the milk and stir so that there no clumps.
Put the pot on the stove and stir continuously on medium heat for 10 minutes and mash the raspberries. The pudding should have a thick consistency.
Place your pudding into a bowl and let it cool until it reaches room temperature.
Start beating your soft butter until creamy and then add your pudding, spoon by spoon. If you want, you can also add red food coloring.
Beat the buttercream for another 5-8 minutes until thick, fluffy and creamy.
Pipe the buttercream on your muffins and enjoy them!

Cinnamon Rolls - perfect for fall baking

There's just something so comforting about a soft, fluffy, and sweet cinnamon roll together with a cup of your fav fall drink. So today, I am sharing my favorite cinnamon recipe with you. I've always been using this exact recipe and I can confidently say that my whole family and friends love it! The yeast dough - things to keep in mind The most important thing about a good and fluffy cinnamon roll is, of course, the yeast dough- but how can you ensure it gets fluffy and perfect? First of all, I always use fresh yeast. In my opinion, this gives you the best results. In order to make sure the yeast can do its job properly, the temperature of the milk (and butter mixture) is key! If your mixture is too hot or too cold, you won't get a good yeast dough, it won't rise and your cinnamon rolls will be dry and flat. I always think of a hot bathtub when I heat my milk.
