Chocolate Cupcake
A genuinely fudgy chocolate cupcake rebuilt around Greek yogurt and a measured scoop of whey protein, with raspberry folded through the crumb for moisture and fibre instead of extra butter, finished with a light cocoa-yogurt frosting rather than buttercream.

Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to 175°C and line two holes of a 6-hole muffin tin with paper cases, filling the remaining four holes with water so the tin bakes evenly.
2
Sift the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda and salt into a bowl and whisk in the sugar and whey protein concentrate.
3
In a separate bowl whisk the egg, greek yogurt, skim milk and vanilla extract until smooth, then fold in the raspberry puree.
4
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and fold gently just until no dry streaks remain; do not overmix.
5
Divide the batter evenly between the two lined holes and bake for 16-18 minutes until a skewer comes out clean.
6
Cool the cupcakes in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely, about 20 minutes.
7
Whisk the whipped greek yogurt, cocoa powder and stevia extract together until smooth and glossy, then spread or pipe over the cooled cupcakes just before serving.
