Coconut flour chocolate cupcakes topped with a creamy raspberry topping make a delightful afternoon treat.
If you want to see me salivate in a restaurant over the dessert menu then make sure that there is a chocolate and raspberry option. There is something about this flavour combination which makes my taste buds dance with pleasure. Almost a sexy salsa. So, as I was baking a batch of chocolate cupcake it only seemed natural to me to add a raspberry topping.
Chocolate Cup Cakes with a Creamy Raspberry Topping
Ingredients
TOPPING
- 1/3 cup 41g fresh/frozen raspberries
- 1/3 cup 75g cream cheese (softened at room temperature)
- 2 tspn ground erythritol or sugar substitute of your choice
CAKE
- 1/4 cup 28g coconut flour
- 1/4 cup 56g butter, melted
- 1/4 cup 56g erythritol (or sugar substitute of your choice)
- 1/4 cup 22g cocoa powder
- 2 tblspns coconut milk
- 2 tblspns water
- 3 eggs
- 1/2 tspn baking powder
- 1/4 tspn salt
Instructions
- Pre-heat the oven to 200C/400F degrees.
- Blend together the butter, eggs, erythritol and coconut milk.
- Add the coconut flour, cocoa powder baking powder and salt, and whisk until there are no lumps and there is a smooth batter. Add the water if the mixture is a bit too stiff.
- Pour into cupcake cups or a greased muffin tray.
- Bake for 20 minutes and allow to cool.
- Blend the topping ingredients until smooth. I used a hand blender but feel free to do an upper arm workout and try it with a fork/spoon!
- Slather the topping over the lemon cakes (or pipe it, my piping bag had to be thrown out so I had to slather!)
- Eat and enjoy!

Omg it looks so good and the colours combi are perfect! Thanks for sharing this recipe 🙂
I hear you and I dance with you! First, I am curious about the erythritol - I have a bag, never used it, afraid of bad after taste. Bought in an impulse, now I stare at it and feel guilty... (sigh)
Now, if you allow me to share a link with you, you MUST make these... they are spectacular! https://bewitchingkitchen.com/2015/09/10/raspberry-bittersweet-chocolate-chunk-brownies/
I love the image of us dancing around a plate of chocolate and raspberry goodies! Your brownies look devine! I will have to make a version of these with gluten free flour! I hear you about the impulse food purchase..I have a packet of breadfruit flour in my cupboard gathering dust..! Fancy a swap? Erythritol is very much like sugar..have a play with it! Perhaps another batch of brownies?
