Pumpkin Cream Cheese
Topping
- 1/2 cup (80g) chocolate chips
Directions
>
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and line a 12 cupcake pan with paper liners (or spray with nonstick spray).
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk maple syrup, coconut sugar almond milk, Chocolate SunButter, and vanilla extract until combined.
- Add the remaining cupcake ingredients and whisk until combined with minimal lumps.
- Divide this batter between the 12 cupcakes, filling each about halfway. Use the back of a spoon to make a subtle depression in the middle of each.
- In a separate bowl, use an electric mixer to beat together the cream cheese, coconut sugar, vanilla, pumpkin, and arrowroot.
- Drop a spoonful of the pumpkin mixture into each cupcake and use the back of a spoon or a chopstick to slightly swirl with the chocolate batter.
- Top each with a handful of chocolate chips, pressing in gently.
- Bake for 23-25 minutes at 350°F.
- Cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes, then gently transfer to a wire cooling rack.
- Enjoy warm, or chill (I personally like them better cold!)
