Rich chocolate cupcakes with molten raspberry centers offer a delightful, indulgent experience.

# What You’ll Need:

→ Chocolate and Fats

01 - 6 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
02 - 6 tablespoons unsalted butter

→ Eggs and Sweeteners

03 - 2 large eggs
04 - 2 large egg yolks
05 - 1/4 cup granulated sugar

→ Flours and Fruits

06 - 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
07 - 1/2 cup fresh raspberries, plus additional for garnish

→ Finishing

08 - Powdered sugar for dusting (optional)

# Step-by-Step Guide:

01 - Preheat oven to 425°F. Grease and flour six muffin cups to prevent sticking.
02 - In a heatproof bowl over simmering water, melt chocolate chips and butter until smooth. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
03 - In a separate bowl, whisk together whole eggs, egg yolks, and granulated sugar until pale and slightly thickened.
04 - Gradually incorporate the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture, whisking until fully blended.
05 - Gently fold in all-purpose flour until just combined, then carefully fold in the fresh raspberries without overmixing.
06 - Spoon batter evenly into prepared muffin cups. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes until edges are set but centers remain soft.
07 - Allow cupcakes to cool in the pan for 2 minutes before inverting onto a plate. Dust with powdered sugar and garnish with fresh raspberries as desired. Serve immediately.

# Handy Tips:

01 - Avoid overmixing after adding flour to maintain a tender texture and proper lava consistency.
