  1. Cupcakes Preheat the oven to 350F and grease 28 mini-muffin cups lightly In a food processor, puree the cherries, stevia, coconut sugar, oil, vinegar, vanilla and cherry juice until smooth.

  2. Mix together the egg replacer powder and coffee, then add to the processor and blend in.

  3. Add flours, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt and pulse in until combined, but don't "whip" it.

  4. Bake mini-cupcakes 15-16 minutes and cool completely in the tins (regular cupcakes take about 22 minutes).

  5. Frosting In a bowl, beat together vegan shortening/margarine, sugar, salt, agave and vanilla until smooth and fluffy.

  6. Add the cocoa powder and beat in, followed by the soy milk (you may need more or less, add slowly!).

  7. Spread frosting on cooled cupcakes (be careful, they're crumbly!) and top with chocolate chips.
