- Sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and espresso powder in a bowl.

- Mix in egg, egg yolk, and vanilla until pale and well combined, about 1 minute.
- Stir in milk and sour cream until smooth.
- Fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined.
- Spoon batter into liners, filling them about ¾ full, and bake for 17-20 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Cool cupcakes in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
- Heat heavy cream in a pan until simmering, pour over chocolate, let sit for 2 minutes, then stir in raspberry preserves.
- Beat softened butter for frosting until fluffy, then gradually add powdered sugar and freeze-dried raspberries.
- Once cooled, remove a small portion from the center of each cupcake, fill with ganache, then pipe on frosting.
