Mmm, Cupcakes!

[Samhayne]

One of our awesome designers is quite the cupcake baker :cupcake: Besides spoiling you all with awesome content (she was the main designer behind Numa Prime and the Forest Haven revamp, among others) she spoils us with yummy cupcakes! This morning it was Vegan Choc'o'Penut Butter Cupcakes. Here's what is left of them :eagerness:

That's looks tasty.

So there ARE female Devs. Thought all the Devs were guys. Good to know. Wonder if we will ever see her post.

[StompArtist]

Vegan cupcakes? Forgive my ignorance but I was not aware that there was a meat version of cupcakes...

Also get her to post the recipe please!

[Navygreen]

Well, lets think about all the ingredients in cupcakes...

I think eggs could be considered meat. Protein? I thought peanuts or peanut butter could also be considered a meat.. It may sound strange, but seriously.... lol

[Techno Email]

Howdy, folks!

Techno Email here with the delicious cupcake recipe, including links to the details that I think make the difference! I hope you enjoy the recipe!

Vegan red velvet cupcakes
1 cup soy milk, room temperature (Edensoy (http://www.grocerycouponnetwork.com/foodproducts/products.php?Id=16064))
1 tsp apple cider vinegar
1 1/4 cups, "all purpose" baking flour
+ 1 1/2 tbsp whole wheat pastry flour (optional)
1 cup granulated sugar (pure cane)
2 tbsp cocoa powder (Dagoba (http://www.grocerycouponnetwork.com/foodproducts/products.php?Id=835))
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt (sea salt)
1/3 cup canola oil
1 1/2 tbsp red food coloring
2 tsp vanilla extract (cooks (http://cooksvanilla.com/product/185/Choice-Pure-Vanilla-Extract-4-oz.html))
1/4 tsp almond extract (cooks (http://cooksvanilla.com/product/302/Pure-Almond-Extract-2-oz.html))
2 tsp chocolate extract (cooks (http://cooksvanilla.com/product/310/Pure-Chocolate-Extract-2-oz.html))

Preheat oven to 350 degrees & fill muffin pan with liners (I use an oven thermometer, and a little cooking spray in the muffin tin)
Lightly whisk together the soymilk and apple cider and set aside to curdle
Sift the flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large mixing bowl (life-saver sifter (http://www.amazon.com/Norpro-140-Battery-Operated-Sifter/dp/B000JWLO6I/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1315581305&sr=8-1))
Add oil food coloring, chocolate extract, vanilla extract, and almond extract to curdled soy milk
Gently fold wet ingredients into dry, mixing with a wisk until large clumps disappear
Fill cupcake liners 2/3 full (these will rise fairly high, I use an ice cream scoop (http://www.amazon.com/Stainless-Steel-Scooper-Green-Handle/dp/B001COUJ8Q/ref=sr_1_74?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1315581454&sr=1-74) for consistent measurement)
Place in hot oven and bake for 18-22 minutes (I check as infrequently as possible using a toothpick to test, and take them out when the toothpick has crumbs on it. Then, I transfer cupcakes to a cooling rack as soon as I can.)

Peanut buttercream
1/4 cup margerine, softened (Earth Balance (http://www.grocerycouponnetwork.com/foodproducts/products.php?Id=16054))
2 tbsp shortening (Earth Balance (http://www.grocerycouponnetwork.com/foodproducts/products.php?Id=22873))
1/3 cup creamy peanut butter (Smooth Operator (http://www.amazon.com/Peanut-Butter-Co-Operator-Natural/dp/B001I2PMSO/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1315582216&sr=8-3))
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/4 cups powdered sugar sifted
1-2 tbsp soy milk

Cream margerine and shortening together with an electric mixer on medium speed, till smooth
Add peanut butter and vanilla and beat till very smooth, 2-3 mins.
Beat in sugar, sifting 1/4 cup at a time; mixture will be very stiff
Dribble in soy milk a little at a time, beating continuously until frosting is pale tan and super fluffy
Frost the cupcakes once they have completely cooled (no cheating!)

Happy nom-nom-ing, friends!

Oh. Eggs. Forgot about them.

Sour cream is also a common ingredient—it makes the cupcake more moist.

[Imacoolbirdd]

Sprinkllessss!!!! :d

[DanielRH]

And would just like to point out that samhayne said VEGAN that means no dairy, no meat, no eggs, nothing that comes from an animal.
