So I tried making these cupcakes and I think they turned out pretty well. I used to do a lot of traditional baking pre-paleo, so I have pretty high standards for my baking. First of all I have to say that this was, by far, the easiest and fastest cupcake recipe I've ever made. But taste and texture it is inferior to a traditional chocolate cupcake. It wasn't sweet enough and the texture was a bit tough. Now, we certainly didn't have any trouble polishing them off! I'm going to try and make them again with some adjustments. I'll try adding a sweetener, maybe some maple syrup or honey, and I may try separating the eggs and beating the egg whites, then folding them into the final batter. This may make a little bit more of a cake-like structure. The icing was awesome though! I've made mousse before with the coconut 'cream' and chocolate and I absolutely LOVE the way it works out. I'll have to post a recipe for that once I make it again so I have some pictures!
