Chocolate Coconut Pecan Cupcakes

Vegan Cupcakes Take Over the World

Honestly, this isn’t an exact recipe from VCTOTW, but it’s based off of the toasted coconut cupcakes with coffee buttercream frosting.  I didn’t have any shredded coconut, so I used some pecans instead and also made a caramel-coconut frosting.

I have made these before and they are my favorite from the VCTOTW book.  However, I was missing something in my prior post:

Wipe that saliva off of your chin, forget about wars, poverty, inequality, and other violence for a minute while peacefully-made cupcakes take over your kitchen….

This cupcake has a repeat appearance on the Utopian Kitchen, with good reason.  They are delectable!

S’Mores Cupcakes

This is an awesome recipe, as are all of the cupcakes I’ve made from this cookbook.  I made a few modifications, including adding marshmallows (I used the Vegan Sweets brand) to the fluffy buttercream frosting, and also adding more chocolate.  The cake part has a great molasses and graham cracker flavoring.  I had to search high and low for some healthy peacefully-obtained grahams and even considered making them myself, but then I found the fruit-sweetened almond cookies shown.  The cookies were perfect!
