Tips

This recipe is perfect for both kids and adults. It's simple to make, and the frosting can be prepared several days in advance, which is a great time saver!


Directions

Preheat the oven to 350F. Grease and line 24 muffin tins. Set aside
In a large mixing bowl, stir together the flour mix, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, and baking soda. Once combined, create a well in the center of the dry ingredients. Add in the eggs, milk, yogurt and oil. Whisk thoroughly for several minutes, until well combined. Transfer the batter to the prepared muffin tins.
Bake the cupcakes in the oven for about 20 minutes, or until a knife inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove the cupcakes from the oven and allow to cool. Meanwhile, prepare the frosting.

Sift the powdered sugar into the bowl of a stand mixer, or a large bowl you can use with a hand-held mixer. Whisk in the cocoa powder. Add in the cream cheese and paddle on medium speed. Pour in the oil, mixing on low speed. Increase to medium speed and beat the frosting for 1 minute. Pipe or spread the frosting onto the cooled cupcakes. The frosting can be made up to three days in advance.

    O.K.
    I didn't have yogurt or the mix so I subbed coconut flour and wheat flour and they were dry without the frosting.
