Yield 24 cupcakes

Number Of Ingredients 21

For the cupcakes:
3 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups sugar
2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 2/3 cups water or cold freshly brewed coffee
1 cup neutral oil, such as canola
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1 tablespoon orange juice
2 tablespoons freshly grated ginger
4 tablespoons zested orange peel
4 tablespoons cider vinegar
For the frosting:
1 cup vegan margarine, softened and at room temperature
4 cups powdered sugar
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
1/4 cup soy milk
1 tablespoon vanilla
1 tablespoon orange juice
1/8 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line two standard cupcake tins with paper liners. Whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Add the water, oil, vanilla, orange juice, ginger, and orange peel. Stir to combine. Add the vinegar and stir quickly. The batter will be slightly foamy and lighter in color as you mix in the vinegar. The batter will turn darker again; this is the sign that all the vinegar has been incorporated. Fill the prepared cupcake tins 2/3 full. Bake for 15 minutes or until the top of a cupcake springs back when lightly pressed with a finger. Cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then remove cupcakes and place on wire rack until completely cool. Frost only after the cupcakes are cool. To make the frosting, whip the margarine with a hand or stand mixer until creamy. Add the powdered sugar and cocoa powder. Gradually whip in the soy milk, then the vanilla, orange juice, and salt and mix on high speed until lightened and creamy. Frost the cupcakes. Refrigerate any unused frosting for up to a week.

Time 40m

Yield Makes 12 cupcakes

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup soy or rice milk
1 teaspoon vinegar
3/4 cup sugar
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup flour
1/3 cup cocoa powder
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup confectioners' sugar
1/4 cup cocoa powder, sifted
3 tablespoons soy or rice milk
Chocolate sprinkles (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 and prepare a dozen muffin cups - either outfit a muffin pan with paper or foil liners, or use a baking sheet and set out 12 paper liners nested inside foil liners, or else use silicone muffin cups.
  • In a large mixing bowl, stir together the soy or rice milk, vinegar, sugar, vegetable oil and vanilla extract. In another bowl, stir together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder and salt. Sift the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients, pausing two or three times to stir, and keep stirring until all the large lumps are gone.
  • Pour the batter into the cupcake liners until they are about two-thirds full. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.
  • When cool, whisk the chocolate glaze ingredients until smooth and spread the glaze on the cupcakes. If you choose, top with sprinkles.

Tips:

  • Use good quality chocolate. The chocolate is the star of these cupcakes, so make sure to use a high-quality dark chocolate that you enjoy the taste of.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cupcakes tough, so mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Fill the cupcake liners no more than 2/3 full. This will help prevent the cupcakes from overflowing in the oven.
  • Bake the cupcakes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking can make the cupcakes dry, so keep an eye on them while they're in the oven.
  • Let the cupcakes cool completely before frosting them. This will help the frosting set properly.

Conclusion:

These vegan chocolate cupcakes with ginger-orange frosting are a delicious and easy-to-make treat. The cupcakes are moist and chocolatey, with a hint of ginger and orange, and the frosting is light and fluffy, with a tangy citrus flavor. These cupcakes are perfect for any occasion, whether you're celebrating a birthday, a holiday, or just want a sweet treat.
