1

First, make the frosting. Scoop the white part of the coconut cream out and add to a pot with the chocolate bars. Melt in a double boiler over low heat stirring occasionally.

2

Transfer to the fridge and set for at least 2 hours, stirring occasionally.

3

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

4

Line a muffin tray with 12 liners and set aside.

5

In a medium bowl, whisk together all wet ingredients. Be sure to shake the can of coconut milk so you're getting the white and liquid parts.

6

Add in the dry ingredients, making sure to spoon and level the flour, starch, and cocoa powder. Whisk to combine until completely smooth.

7

Add to the lined tray and fill each 2/3 of the way up.

8

Bake for 20-24 minutes. When a toothpick comes out clean, remove from the oven.

9

Let cool in the tray for about 10 minutes, then carefully remove and transfer to a wire rack to finish cooling.

10

When the frosting has set, transfer to a large bowl, add in the vanilla and beat with an electric mixer. Beat the powdered sugar/ mink fruit until smooth and creamy. If its too thick, just add a splash of milk, if its not thick enough, add in a bit more sugar/ monk fruit until it reaches your desired consistency. Taste and adjust flavors as desired.

11

Use a knife to frost the cupcakes or pipe with a piping bag. Drizzle with caramel sauce and enjoy!
