Because I really, really wanted a cupcake, I decided to make these things of beauty. Although you can't see the cupcake itself for all the creamy frosting and the wrapper. Take my word for it when I tell you it's a very dark chocolate cupcake made with dark rich cocoa, I also crushed up some newman-o's and added it to the mix for extra "oreo" goodness.
The frosting was a fluffy buttercream concotion also containing crushed up newman o's (see the trend) the vanilla and almond extract really gave it a delicious taste.
These were by far some of the best tasting vegan cupcakes, I've had recently. They were rich, moist and fluffy. Obviously, my friends and family thought so too, because before I could bat an eyelash twice they were gone. I was the victim of a drive by cupcake nabbin'. The fighting was brutal and the damage fierce. I was only able to save two of the these little dark delicacies.
Were they healthy? Well if you mean healthy in that mental health sort of way when craving something sweet and having the added benefit of chocolate. Then yes... yes, it was healthy.
I got this yummy recipe from Vegan Cupcakes Take Over the World
This is one of my favorite cupcake go to books. I still use it just as much now as I did back then when I first got it.
Sinfully Sweet,
Duo
