Instructions: 

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.

In a large mixing bowl, add your dry ingredients:

1 1/2 cups of gluten free flour

1/2 cup of unsweetened cocoa powder

1 scoop of our Organic Protein in Decadent Chocolate

1/4 cup of cane sugar

1 tsp of baking soda

1/4 tsp of salt

Add your wet ingredients to the dry mixture:

1 1/4 cup of almond milk

1/4 cup of maple syrup

3 tbsp of melted coconut oil

1 tsp of vanilla extract

1/2 tsp of peppermint extract

Pour batter into a muffin pan lined with foil cupcake liners. Fill about 1/2 – 3/4 of the way. Bake for 15 minutes, test to see if cupcakes are done. If not, bake for another 3 to 5 minutes.

Let cupcakes cool for at least 20 minutes.

In a small bowl, mix 1/4 tsp of peppermint extract with vegan coconut oil based chocolate frosting. Frost cupcakes, and top with a mixture of chopped peppermint puffs and vegan white chocolate!
