Ingredients:

1 1/3 cup unbl. white flour
1 1/4 cup white or unbl. wh. sugar
3/4 cup vegan margarine
1 Tbsp vanilla
2/3 cup unsweetened baking cocoa
1 1/2 tsp baking soda
2 Tbsp cornstarch
1/4 tsp salt
1 Tbsp egg replacer mixed with 1/3 cup water
2 Tbsp lemon juice mixed with:
1/2 cup plain almond milk
1/3 cup water

Cupcake Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees
Line muffin tin with 12 paper cupcake liners
Beat together egg replacer & water
Mix flour, baking soda, cornstarch and salt in a small bowl and set aside
Cream margarine with sugar
Add vanilla, water, almond milk/lemon juice mixture, egg replacer, and beat until completely mixed
Stir in dry ingredients until just mixed
Spoon mixture evenly into prepared muffin cup liners
Bake 15-20 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean
Allow to cool completely before icing with 1/2 recipe of vanilla butter cream frosting
Decorate with sprinkles if desired

Cooking & Serving Tips:

Best baked in paper cupcake liners. Be sure to wait until they're completely cool before icing them.

For a children's party, we like to make these with vanilla butter cream frosting, and cover them with sprinkles. For a Valentine's Day treat, you may prefer chocolate frosting - with or without sprinkles. Naturally, these cupcakes are also delicious plain.

Warning: When you make these chocolate cupcakes, be prepared for people to moan, “Oh my god these are so good!” over and over as they eat them. If anyone complains that they're not healthy, offer them an apple!
