A new addition to my top 10

Of all the cupcakes I've made, key lime coconut, pumpkin cheesecake, chocolate chip cookie dough, Italian cream, Red Velvet, and Oreo have got to be some of my favorites. I made a new one at a friend's request last weekend and fell in love. Seriously. So good.

First, I made a chocolate cupcake. Not just any chocolate cake. I tried Colette Peter's recipe and used 1/3 dark baking cocoa for a more fudgy flavor. Delish. So moist, rich, and absolutely amazing.

While they were baking, I reduced some fresh raspberries on the stove with a little sugar. When the raspberries and cupcakes were cool, I piped the filling into the middle. I topped the cupcakes with vanilla bean buttercream, cream cheese frosting, and chocolate buttercream. I took them to work and they disappeared before I could sample all the frosting/cake combinations. I tried the cream cheese and it was awesome. My sister said the chocolate was a little too rich for her. I'd probably agree. These cupcakes require-REQUIRE-a glass of milk. Not that that's a bad thing.

You can see that the cake is moist. Doesn't that look richly decadent? Trust me. It is. Mmmmm...

Looking at the pic it looks like the cupcake might be dry because of the crumbling, but it's very, very moist. So moist I ate it with a fork. And, of course, a glass of milk. Seriously so good.

So, what are some of your favorite cupcake flavors?
