These cupcakes come with a story. So one day I was sitting in the kitchen and my mom was sitting in the computer room, my mom yells (and I am mean I really thought I was in trouble or something bad had happened) "Zoe!, come here RIGHT NOW!" so I run over, and she shows me these cupcakes on a food blog called foodporndaily.com, she says that we HAVE to make them! So here we are! They were quite delicious! Not quite as fluffy as I had anticipated, more like the density of angel food cake than a light cupcake, but the density balanced out the smoother flavors of the white chocolate ganache.
The inside is filled with homemade raspberry jam! It was so good! To fill the cupcakes you have to cut out little "pockets"out of the top to put the jam in and then replace it with the caps that were cut. The little pockets make for the perfect surprise when you bite into the cupcake! We had some left over that we ate with the homemade bread that my aunt had made earlier that day and the combination was simply divine! Making the jam was really easy! We didn't use any pectin or thickeners and it came out just great! It really got my mom and I thinking that it would be fun to make some jams next summer after our annual fruit pickings!!! I am so excited!
