Instructions for Baking Best Vegan Cupcakes:
1. Preheat the oven to 350º F.
2. In a large bowl, add your all purpose flour, baking powder and Rainforest Bulk Cocoa Powder, don't forget to sift them because we want no lumps in the batter.
3. Incorporate both sugar and salt. Stir to combine the dry ingredients before adding the wet ones.
4. Open a hole in the middle of your dry ingredients and pouryour milk, vanilla extract and vegetable oil. Mix until completely combined. You can do this with an electric mixer or by hand; make sure the chocolate batter is lumps free.
5. Line a cupcake pan, you can use a mini one or a regular size one. If you prefer, you can also use a medium loaf pan.
6. Bake for 15 minutes, keep an eye on them after 12 minutes.
7. Let them cool down before start to decorate them.
8. Melt your Organic Dark Chocolate and Cocoa Butter Vegan Chips using the double boiler method, also known as Bain Marie; I recommend to use this method instead of melting the chocolate in the microwave because it prevents the chocolate to get burned.
9. Take your mini chocolate cupcakes and dip the top into the meltedCocoa Butter Vegan Chips.
10. Let the mini chocolate cupcakes set and then drizzle some melted Organic Dark Chocolate Chips all over the white base.
11. Finish your decoration with a little golden pearl or any other ornament that you like.
