1/4 cup (22g) unsweetened cocoa powder

3 large Eggs (150g)
3 Tablespoons (42g) Butter
2/3 cup (175g) Unsweetened almond milk
1 teaspoon (4.3g) Vanilla extract
1/2 cup (90g) Unsweetened chocolate chips (we used Bake Believe Dark Chocolate Chips, but Lily’s Dark Chocolate Baking Chips or Pascha 100% Cacao Chips could also work!)
FOR THE PEANUT BUTTER FROSTING

1 cups (192g) AlluMonk Allulose & Monk Fruit Sweetener (Hoosier Hill Farms Allulose is also a viable choice if you want to skip the monk fruit; Lakanto’s Monk Fruit Sweetener with Erythritol is another option)

2 Tablespoons (32g) Unsweetened almond milk
INSTRUCTIONS
FOR THE CUPCAKES
Preheat the oven to 375°F/190°C
Line muffin pan(s) with paper cupcake liners. Because coconut flour tends to stick, grease the liners with nonstick spray.
In a large bowl, mix the dry ingredients (coconut flour, almond flour, cocoa powder, sweetener, baking powder, and salt)
In a separate bowl, microwave the butter for 15-30 seconds to soften, but it should not be melted if possible. Stir in the eggs, unsweetened almond milk, and vanilla extract.
Pour your wet ingredients into your dry ingredients bowl and mix well (ideally with an electric blender)
Using a large spoon, pour the batter evenly into the muffin cups
Bake for 25 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and let them cool off for at least 15 minutes (they must not be warm when you ice them)
FOR THE FROSTING
Use a food processor / blender to blend your sweetener to make it powdered (this allows it to mix in better with the shortening/butter)
In a large bowl, microwave the butter for 15-30 seconds to soften, but it should not be melted if possible, Stir in the peanut butter and beat with an electric mixer until creamy and well-combined.
Gradually, with mixer on low speed, add your powdered sweetener until completely combined. Make sure to scrape the sides and the bottom of the bowl with a spatula so all ingredients are well-combined.
Stir in vanilla extract and salt.
With mixer on low-speed, add almond milk and stir until well-combined. Gradually increase speed to high and beat for 30 seconds.
Spread or pipe frosting onto completely cooled cupcakes.
