Raspberry Cupcakes

Baking is quite soothing to the soul. Whether I feel bad, sad or just need to clear my head, getting into the kitchen is just what I need to get right again. Comfort baking is something more people should engage in. It's not really about the end result for me, as in so I can eat them. But when I share them, cupcakes make people happy.

And who doesn't want to make people happy?

Raspberry Cupcakes

1/2 cup soft butter
2/3 cup brown sugar
1 cup flour + 1/2 cup oat flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 c half and half
2 eggs
1/4 cup fresh raspberries
12 dark chocolate discs

preheat oven to 350 F. Line muffin tin.

Beat the butter, sugar, flour, milk and eggs on low until pale and fluffy.

Divide evenly among the muffin cups, place a chocolate disk in sideways and bake for about 15 minutes, or until a skewer comes out clean.

Vanilla frosting is perfect for this one!
