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!

  4. I haven't had these in over a year! In fact it was last march that I made then (I remember because it was Friday the 13th.)
    Mine looked just like yours but I used Newman O's instead of Oreos.
    Is that you favorite recipe from VCTOTW?

  5. Those cupcakes look so yummy. I have to make some vegan cupcakes for my sons birthday next week and those look like they might be the best choice ever :) I haven't ever baked out of that cookbook. I made his cupcakes last year from How It All Vegan. My non-vegan friends were't sure that they liked the molasses flavor. Hopefully these will be a bigger hit. Thanks for the recipe. I may have to pick up the cookbook.

    mama ventura, these cupcakes are really yummy. i do suggest them for your son's birthday! i bet he'd love them very much. i love the vanilla/almond flavoring in these.
