Chocolate Cupcakes Chocolate Buttercream Recipe

by TheSweetestVegan on March 15, 2012

You can never go wrong with chocolate cupcakes. So when one of my classmates bid on my vegan treats in the schools silent auction fund raiser, that is exactly what I offered to bake her. The problem is that with doing the show, I do not really get a chance to bake for leisure so even though I already have a vegan chocolate cake video, I’ll have to have vegan chocolate cupcakes too.

Hi Sweetest Vegan! My friends and I made this together when you first posted it, and it was SOOO GOOD!!! I found out that I’m lactose intolerant a few years ago, and I haven’t had chocolate in so long! Thank you for this amazing recipe! I just got back on your website to find it, so I can put it in my recipe book.
