Raspberry Cupcakes with White Chocolate Buttercream Frosting

This is, again, from my Primrose Bakery book. The frosting is made by mixing melted white chocolate pieces with vanilla buttercream frosting. I only made this when I had some buttercream leftover as the recipe only requires four tablespoons of it. My kids loved it! Maybe because they love raspberries :-)

Buttermilk Raspberry Muffins

I had quite a lot of buttermilk left from the scones, so I used them to make these. They are from my new book, 1001 Cupcakes, Cookies & Other Tempting Treats by Susanna Tee, which was given to me by lovely Sister No.3.

They were quite nice and the texture was good too. I gave some to a friend who absolutely loved them! :-)

Lemon-Raspberry Muffins

We went on a picnic on Saturday (our first in Singapore!) and I made these lemon-raspberry muffins from Nigella's Domestic Goddess. My older son asked me why I always bake the same thing, so I had to try to make something else. I chose this because I wanted something tangy yet sweet enough for my boys and this looked like an easy recipe. And it was. It was really really easy to make. It was soft and moist and I loved the lemony raspberry taste. Funnily, my younger son would only eat the cake part without the raspberries even though he loves fresh raspberries!
