If you dont have cup cake fill cake pan then you can use normal cup cake pans for this recipe.
Spoon into prepared cup cake trays and bake in the oven for 10 to 15 minutes until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.
Cool the cup cakes completely. If you used the fill cake pan, then spoon the chocolate ganache filling into the center cavities and top with the raspberry filling.
If you are using normal non fill cup cake pans, then you can spread the ganache on the top of the cup cake and drizzle the raspberry filling just before serving. Once filled, place the filled cup cakes in the refrigerator for a few hours before serving.
