Yield Makes 34

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 1/4 cups cake flour (not self-rising), sifted
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon coarse salt
8 ounces (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
1 3/4 cups sugar
2 vanilla beans, split and scraped, pods reserved for another use, or 1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup whole milk
8 large egg whites, room temperature
1 1/2 pints (3 cups) blueberries
34 raspberries (1/2 pint; about 1 1/3 cups)
Seven-Minute Frosting for Berry Cupcakes

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees, with racks in middle and lower positions. Line 3 muffin tins with 34 liners. Whisk together 3 cups flour, the baking powder, and salt.
  • Beat butter, 1 1/2 cups sugar, and the vanilla until pale and fluffy. Scrape down sides of bowl as needed. Beat in flour mixture in 3 additions, alternating with milk.
  • Beat whites until soft peaks form. Gradually add remaining 1/4 cup sugar, beating until stiff, glossy peaks form. Using a rubber spatula, fold one-third of the whites into batter, then carefully fold in remaining whites. Gently toss blueberries with remaining 1/4 cup flour to coat. Gently fold floured blueberries into batter. Divide batter evenly among cupcake liners.
  • Bake until cupcakes spring back when touched, 23 to 25 minutes. Let cool in tins on wire racks for 10 minutes. Remove cupcakes from tins, and let cool completely on wire racks. Frost cupcakes and garnish each with a raspberry.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, ripe berries for the best flavor. Frozen berries can also be used, but they should be thawed and drained before using.
  • Be careful not to overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cupcakes tough.
  • Fill the cupcake liners only about 2/3 full. This will prevent them from overflowing in the oven.
  • Bake the cupcakes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Do not overbake, or the cupcakes will be dry.
  • Let the cupcakes cool completely before frosting them. This will help the frosting to set properly.
  • If you are using a store-bought frosting, be sure to let it come to room temperature before using. This will make it easier to spread.
  • For a fun and festive look, top the cupcakes with a fresh berry or a sprinkle of colored sugar.

Conclusion:

These berry surprise cupcakes are a delicious and easy-to-make treat that are perfect for any occasion. With their moist and fluffy texture, sweet and tangy filling, and creamy frosting, these cupcakes are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you are looking for a special dessert, give these berry surprise cupcakes a try. You won't be disappointed!
