These are very tasty. You can substitute different flavors of jam or even peanut butter for the filling.

3 tb unsweetened cocoa powder
1 ts baking powder
1/2 ts baking soda
1/2 ts cinnamon
1/4 ts salt

1/2 c packed light brown sugar
1 egg

1.In medium bowl, combine flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
2.In large bowl, with electric mixer, beat butter, oil, and brown sugar until light and fluffy. Add egg and vanilla and beat until well combined. On low speed, alternately beat in flour mixture and buttermilk, beginning and ending with flour mixture.
3.Spoon 1/3 of batter into muffin cups. Make a small well in batter. Spoon a large dollop of raspberry jam into each well. Spoon remaining batter evenly over raspberry jam.
