hi
I'd like to make this into a single layer cake. refined sugar free and gluten free. Would that work ? Which sugar do you recommend ? In the notes you have mentioned coconut sugar, but in the comments someone has asked about coconut sugar and you were unsure, so I'm a little confused. Any changes to the remaining measurements for a 9 inch cake of that kind ?
Please advise 🙂

Great recipe and has been my go to for awhile now! I usually swap the coconut oil for avocado oil and they turn out great!

I make these with coconut milk and they always come out amazingly moist. I never will use another chocolate cupcake recipe again...thank you for this recipe!!!

These are my GO TO chocolate cupcakes! Better than any non-vegan chocolate cupcake too 🙂

These are the best chocolate cup cakes I've ever made and the best I've ever eaten. Unfortunately I can't stop rodding them down.... I made them for the kids but have eaten three already - before dinner. I realised too late that I'd run out of coconut oil and so I made them with Flora Buttery (which despite the name is vegan). Thank you so much Sarah.

In reply to Tara. Our Kroger's has the sticks. Hope you can find them at a Kroger near you.

Hey 🙂 Could you maybe double check your converter?
When I go to metric and with a portion I end up with almost 2kg of vegan butter for the frosting.
When I go back to cups, it is 0.6 cups, so something is off or I need a looooot of butter 🙂

Looking forward to try to make them later.! Thanks

We made the minis tonight and they were great, however I used Earth Balance whipped butter (instead of sticks which I can’t find anywhere) and the frosting was a disaster. I’ll opt instead for regular butter if that’s the key?

These were the best cupcakes I've ever made! I used oat milk, red wine vinegar and sunflower oil and they were perfect, believe it or not. The trick must be the extra liquid. Thank you for sharing.

In reply to Bonnie. There are a handful of easily accessible vegan chocolate chips. Some that are naturally vegan and others that are intentionally. Checking labels is good but most well-stocked grocery stores should have at least one vegan option.

In reply to Deborah Koyanagi. Hey Deborah, Coconut sugar would affect the texture and without having tried it myself, I'm not sure what the ratio would be. I'm sure it would also require some tweaking of the other ingredients to get the texture right. However, you can make these mini cupcakes. I would start baking them at 10-12 minutes and check them after that. Let us know how they turn out!

I've been commissioned to bring cupcakes to a bridal shower, and thought why not bake them yourself - a non-baker - sure why not? In my quest for recipes I have found you and yours, they look so yummy and simple! Question tho - can I use coconut sugar or any others instead of white sugar, and if so, would the measurements be the same? And, instead of regular sized muffins I am thinking of making minis - what would the baking time then be? Many thanks - great recipes!
Happy Baking
Deborah

Most chocolate chips have milk in them, so NOT vegan. My daughter is allergic to milk and we’ve always had trouble finding things she can eat. We usually end up using dark chocolates because of the milk issue. Carob chips usually are dairy free but they don’t melt as well. Always read your labels.

In reply to Marie. How much vinegar did you put in? You shouldn't taste it at all.
