Easy Raspberry Chocolate Cupcakes

Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • ¾ cup olive oil
  • ½ cup milk
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 cups self-raising flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 cup caster sugar
  • ½ cup choc chips
  • 1 ½ cups of raspberries + extras to garnish

Vanilla Icing

  • 115 grams of Philadelphia cream cheese (room temperature)
  • 100 grams of unsalted butter (softened)
  • 3 cups of icing sugar (sifted)
  • 1 teaspoon of vanilla bean paste
  • milk if required (up to 2 tablespoons)

Notes from Rouba

  • You can use a jumbo muffin pan if you want bigger cakes and fewer of them
  • I like to use milk chocolate chips, but white or dark chocolate chips work as well.
  • Frozen raspberries can be used (the muffins may be pink as frozen raspberries bleed colour).
  • Refrigerated ingredients are best used at room temperature so the batter mixes easily and evenly.

Method

Step 1.

Heat the oven to 180° and grease a 12-cup cupcake tray with melted butter and dust over with sifted flour.

Whisk the olive oil, milk, and eggs together and add the remaining dry ingredients.

Step 2.

Mix well. Add the chocolate chips and raspberries and mix well.

Step 3.

Divide the cake mixture evenly and bake in the preheated oven for approximately 20 minutes or until cooked through.

Step 4.

To make the vanilla icing, beat the butter and cream until fluffy and smooth. Reduce the speed and add the icing sugar slowly until well blended. Beat in the vanilla bean paste. Milk can be added one tablespoon at a time if necessary. Add to the desired consistency.

That’s me at the age of 32 with Merlin, who worked closely with Palestinian families. Together, we were so excited about the project. After that unforgettable visit with Auntie Suad, I was filled with excitement about the project. The women I met were inspiring, and together we had even come up with a name for the cookbook: Taste of Palestine. 🥰🇵🇸 It was a name that captured the heart of what we wanted to share—stories, recipes, and traditions tied to the land and its people.

But for many reasons, the project didn’t go ahead. At the time, I wasn’t prepared for the reality that not everyone would understand or support what I was doing. There were people who gossiped, joked, and made me question myself. Looking back now, I see that they were the minority, but their words had a way of making me doubt myself 🥺

if this happened now—I would not have let anything stop me. This was for a good cause, but I also believe that everything happens for a reason. The project was meant to be set aside, and I needed to focus on my boys, who were still young.
A couple of years later, we received the heartbreaking news of Auntie Suad’s passing 🥲🙏🏽It felt as though a part of the story had been left unfinished. A few weeks later, something arrived in the mail that would bring me to tears 😭 There’s more 🤗
