Mmmm Mmmm Good - White Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake Cupcakes

What can I say, baking has been happening, and if you follow us on Facebook then you have still been seeing pictures of yummy treats, but if not, then you have been wondering what has happened? Where has Criminal Cakes gone? Where are all my goodies? Things have been hectic, but now I'm back, with delicious photos, of scrumptious sweets. 


The first of the comeback posts is White Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake cupcakes. This cupcake is inspired by the wonderful dessert that everyone loves at the Cheesecake Factory, for me it's even better because it's a cupcake. Who doesn't love cupcakes?  Be honest, I know everyone does. So imagine a raspberry cupcake, but not just any cupcake one that's moist, with just the right combination of sweet and tart, made from fresh raspberries, with white chocolate chips mixed in. Every bite is a burst of flavor, and at the bottom of that cupcake is half of an Oreo cookie. Like a pie crust, it's there, overlooked, until you take of the paper and bite into it, the flavor fully complimenting the raspberry and white chocolate. 


At this point you might be thinking, that sounds delicious, but where, I say, where is the cheesecake? All I see is cake, and to a point you are right, but ... the flavor of cheesecake comes in with the white chocolate cream cheese frosting. Yep, you read it right, White Chocolate cream cheese, mmmmm ... it is light, but with the right amount of sweetness. Sooooo goooood. Then, just because the cupcake wasn't enough, drizzle the top with a raspberry syrup made from fresh raspberries. What you end up with is a cupcake worthy enough to be considered perfect
