Indulgent vegan chocolate cupcakes topped with creamy vanilla frosting, customizable with your favorite sprinkles or candy.
Ingredients:
  • 1.75 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 4 tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder, or more to taste
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 cup water
  • 5 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon white wine vinegar
  • 0.5 cup vegan margarine
  • 3.5 cups confectioners' sugar
  • 3 tablespoons vanilla soy milk, or as needed
  • 0.5 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • colored sprinkles
Instructions:
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and prepare 15 muffin cups by greasing them or lining them with paper liners.
  • In a large bowl, mix flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Add water, oil, vanilla extract, and vinegar. Stir until smooth. Spoon batter into muffin cups, filling each 2/3 full.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 20-30 minutes until the tops spring back when lightly pressed. Cool in the muffin cups for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack and let cool for about 20 minutes.
  • In a bowl, use an electric mixer to cream the margarine until soft and fluffy for about 1 minute. Gradually add half of the confectioners' sugar, one tablespoon at a time, while mixing on low speed. Next, stir in the vanilla soy milk and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Finally, mix in the rest of the confectioners' sugar until the frosting reaches your preferred consistency.
  • Transfer the frosting into a piping bag and swirl it over the cupcakes. Top with colorful sprinkles for a delightful finishing touch.
