Vegan Cupcakes!!

For my birthday, I made myself vegan cupcakes to share with friends.  I made a vanilla cupcake with chocolate frosting.  I was scared and overwhelmed at first because it seemed so daunting.  But after finishing them, I can do it again (and I did...post coming soon!).

This is the wrong chocolate but it's the only one I was able to find.  I prefer the unsweetened Baker's chocolate.  It's vegan and tastes better in baked goods in my opinion.

 

These came out very delicious.  I would play with the flavor of the cupcakes.  I was expecting a stronger vanilla flavor.  I would maybe add vanilla bean to it.
