Instructions

Prep: Preheat the oven to 350F, and line a cupcake tin with two cupcake liners.
Make the batter: In a bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, brown sugar, baking powder, and baking soda. Add in the dairy free milk, Forager Project Cashewmilk Yogurt, and vegan butter. Whisk to combine, just until the dry ingredients are fully incorporated into the batter.
Bake: Scoop the batter into the two cupcake liners evenly. Bake for 20 minutes. Once baked, remove from the oven and allow the cupcakes to cool on a cooling rack until there is NO warmth left in the cupcakes. Then you can make the frosting.
While the cupcakes are cooling: melt the vegan chocolate chips either via stovetop or the microwave until completely melted. Set aside to cool at room temperature.
Make the chocolate sour cream frosting: To make the frosting, cream together the vegan butter and Forager Project Sour Cream. It’s okay if it splits a little bit. Add in the powdered sugar, and mix again until combined. Then pour in the cooled chocolate and cream together until fully combined.
Frost and enjoy! Frost each cupcake with the chocolate sour cream frosting, and top with sprinkles. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

Frosting options: You can also use 1/4 of my classic vegan chocolate buttercream.
