1. Heat oven to 350° F.
   
   
2. In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar. Mix in flour, baking powder and salt. In a small bowl, lightly beat the egg. Stir in half-and-half. Combine egg mixture with the flour mixture, and stir just until dry ingredients are moistened.
   
   
3. Grease muffin pan. Fill each with 1 tablespoon batter. Place 4 or 5 raspberries on the batter, then add 1 more tablespoon batter. Bake for 18 minutes, or until the muffins are golden brown. While they are still hot, sprinkle the tops with granulated sugar. Let the muffins cool in the tins for 6 to 8 minutes before removing.
