These cupcakes are AMAZING! I made them last weekend and gave them to everyone I know! They were a hit! So easy and my mom who is allergic to eggs loved them too! Inspired Taste for a win once again!

Just made the cupcakes and buttercream frosting.  Delicious and very easy.  This is the 5th or 6th recipe I've used from Inspired Taste and everything has been so good. I love to cook and your recipes are awesome!

Classic Vegan Chocolate Cupcakes Recipe

All Purpose Flour ((188 grams))

Cocoa Powder ((43 grams) Unsweetened)

White Granulated Sugar ((100 grams))

Light Brown Sugar ((100 grams))

tsp Baking Soda

Salt

Soy Milk

tsp Vanilla Extract

Canola Oil ((80 milliliters) or Vegetable Oil)

Tbsp Applesauce

Tbsp Distilled White Vinegar (or Apple Cider Vinegar)

Vegan Butter ((170 grams))

Powdered Sugar ((360 grams))

Cocoa Powder ((63 grams) Unsweetened)

Vegan Chocolate Shavings (Optional)

Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) and line a cupcake tray with cupcake liners. Set aside.

Sift the flour and cocoa into a mixing bowl and add the white and brown sugar, baking soda and salt and mix together.

Add the soy milk, vanilla, oil, applesauce and vinegar and mix in. Use a hand whisk to whisk out any big lumps.

Divide the batter evenly between the cupcake liners.

Place into the oven and bake for 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center of one of the cupcakes comes out clean.

Let cool for a few minutes and then remove the cupcakes from the cupcake tray and transfer to a wire cooling rack to cool completely.

Prepare your frosting by adding the vegan butter, powdered sugar, cocoa powder, vanilla and salt to a mixing bowl. Using an electric mixer, start at slow speed, gradually increasing speed. Add in the soy milk slowly, only as much as needed to get the right consistency.

When your cupcakes are cooled, pipe on the frosting and sprinkle with grated vegan chocolate shavings.

Recipe Vegan Chocolate Frosting

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners. Spray the liners with a little oil to prevent sticking.

In a measuring cup, combine the soy milk and apple cider vinegar. Let sit a few minutes until it curdles (this is your vegan buttermilk).

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda and salt until well combined.

To the bowl with the mixed dry ingredients, add the oil, applesauce, vanilla and milk/vinegar mixture. Stir well with a large spoon or spatula until smooth and well combined. The batter should be fairly thin and smooth, not too thick. (see photos in post above for reference)

Fill the liners only half full. Do not overfill or the cupcakes will rise out of the liners and spill over. Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out mostly clean.

Cool completely, then pipe or spread on frosting as desired with Vegan Chocolate Frosting.
