hello, cupcake!

last night i had a sugar tooth, so i made some cupcakes! the recipe is from the cookbook vegan cupcakes take over the world.

1 cup soy milk
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup canola oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon almond extract, chocolate extract, or more vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/3 cup cocoa powder, dutch-processed or regular
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup of chopped oreos

bake at 350° for 18-20 minutes

once the cupcakes are out of the oven and have cooled off, you can now add the frosting! the frosting recipe i used is also from the cookbook vegan cupcakes take over the world. it is called "vegan fluffy buttercream frosting."

1/2 cup nonhydrogenated shortening
1/2 cup nonhydrogenated margarine
3 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/4 cup plain soy milk or soy creamer
1/2 cup of chopped oreos

then once that is done, you can add half of an oreo to the top of the cupcake! ta da!
