These muffins are purely veggie based, so they are really moist! If you’re not into that, then I’d say pass this recipe up. But if you are looking for the healthiest veggie chocolate muffin of your life, you just found it.

Ingredients Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350F.
  2. In a food processor prepare your minced sweet potato and cauliflower.
  3. Add all ingredients (except chocolate chips) in a high speed blender and puree until smooth.
  4. Line muffin tray with paper liners and fill 3/4 the way full with batter. Then sprinkle with chocolate chips (optional). I use large bakery style muffins and it makes 5 muffins and takes 1 hour 20 minutes to bake. To make 10 regular muffins reduce cooking time to about 60 minutes. You will know they have finished cooking when a knife inserted into the middle of a muffin comes out clean. Cool before eating (this allows the muffins to set up). The muffins should be really moist inside. Store in fridge or freezer.

  4. In a double boiler melt ingredients for frosting and whisk until smooth. Transfer frosting to fridge or freezer for 15-30 minutes then whip until it reaches a fluffy spreadable consistency. If the frosting becomes too hard, use a hair dryer and whisk while heating until it becomes spreadable again.
  5. Frost cupcakes. Optional: top with natural sprinkles or mini chocolate chips.

Ingredients Cake Frosting Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350F. Line the bottom of a 5" by 8" pan (I used a casserole dish, you could use a different size, just watch the cooking time) with parchment paper. 
  2. In a mixing bowl combine all ingredients for the cake batter until smooth, then pour into the cake pan, and bake on 350F for 25-35 minutes (you will know the cake is done when a knife inserted into the middle of the cake comes out clean). Allow cake to cool before frosting.
  3. Heat the coconut milk for the frosting in a small saucepan over medium heat on the stove until warm, but not boiling. Then take it off the heat and add chocolate chips. Let the chocolate chips soak in the coconut milk until melted then stir until combined. Add salt and whisk. Place frosting into the fridge, stir on occasion, and let it chill until the frosting becomes semi-stiff, but still creamy and spreadable (about 1/2 hour).
  4. Once the frosting is formed, spread over the cake, slice, and serve. You can make chocolate shavings for decor by melting chocolate chips, spreading the melted chocolate over the back of a baking tray, cooling in the freezer for about 4 minutes, then scraping off into spirals with a large metal spatula.
