Ingredients

Cupcakes

  • 1/2 cup coconut flour
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 1 cup coconut sugar
  • 1/3 cup coconut oil melted
  • 1/4 cup coconut milk
  • 6 large eggs
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt

Frosting

  • 1 1/2 cup chocolate chips or paleo chocolate
  • 2/3 cup cashew butter or almond or peanut
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350F. Line a 12 cup muffin pan with paper liners.
  • In a stand mixer or by hand combine all ingredients for cupcakes and mix until the batter is smooth.
  • Use an ice-cream scoop to fill the muffin liners 2/3 way full. Bake on 350F for 25 minutes until cooked- test by inserting a clean toothpick or knife into the center of a cupcake, if it comes out clean they are done. Allow cupcakes to cool before frosting.
  • Prepare a double boiler and bring heat to a low simmer. Melt all ingredients for the frosting together in the double boiler. Then beat with an electric mixer for about 1 minute (I use my KitchenAid). Transfer the bowl of frosting (it will be like a thick liquid) to the fridge to chill for about 1 hour until it thickens (stirring on occasion). Whip frosting again before piping onto cupcakes.

Notes

Here are the natural sprinkles I recommend- mixed or chocolate.
