Method

Preheat the oven to 170°C on fan-bake. In a large electric mixing bowl, beat together the butter, Chelsea Soft Brown Sugar and eggs for 2-3 minutes until creamy.   Sift the flour, baking soda and cocoa. Add the dry ingredients to the egg mixture with the sour cream and beat for 2-3 minutes until smooth and fluffy. Spoon the mixture into a 12-hole muffin pan lined with cupcake cases or directly into self-standing cupcake cases.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes until the cupcakes are puffed and spongy to the touch. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool.
Buttercream : Beat the butter until smooth and pale. Gradually add the Chelsea Berry Flavoured Icing Sugar, half a cup at a time, with enough of the hot water to make a creamy mixture, beating between each addition until fluffy and pink. When the cupcakes have completely cooled, pipe with a generous swirl of buttercream and top with a raspberry lolly.
