Directions:
Preheat oven to 350Ā°F.
- Sift flour into one bowl and combine with remaining dry ingredients. Mix your wet ingredients in a separate bowl.
- Slowly combine the dry ingredients with the wet until cupcake mixture is smooth.
- Fill cupcake liners with mixture about 3/4 of the way full.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes.
Bunny Ears:
While cupcakes are baking you can prepare Crunchy Coconut Blossom Chocolate mixture. When mixture is ready, allow to cool down slightly – about 5 minutes. Place mixture in an icing bag, then in refrigerator to cool for another 5 minutes. Line a try with parchment paper. When mixture removed from the fridge, use hands to massage it around in icing bag. Carefully squeeze little lines onto parchment paper. Using a small spatula, press down and shape into little bunny ears. Place in the freezer to harden – about 10 minutes.
Icing:
Remove cupcakes from the oven and let cool while you prepare icing.
- In a small mixing bowl, use an electric whisk or mixer to whip coconut oil until smooth consistency.
- Add half the powdered sugar and whip until combined. Slowly add vanilla and almond milk and combine well. Add remaining sugar and whip until smooth and should be a light brown colour.
- Ice your cupcakes once they have cooled completely. Top with toasted coconut and your bunny ears.
