Vegan S'more Cupcakes

I created this for the 2009 Milwaukee Iron Cupcake competition inspired by Seattle's Trophy Cupcakes.  This works best in a foil cupcake liner as it toasts the graham cracker layer better than paper.
Vegan S'more Cupcake
CUPCAKE:
3 tablespoons earth balance spread, melted
5 ounces bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped
1 cup soy milk
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
3/4 cup sugar
1/3 cup canola oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
1 cup flour
1/3 cup cocoa powder
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
FROSTING:
1/4 cup vegetable shortening
1/4 cup earth balance
1 3/4 cups powdered sugar
3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons soy milk

​​1.    Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Line 12 muffin tins with cupcake liners.

2.    Whisk together the soy milk and vinegar in a large bowl.  Set aside for a few minutes to curdle.  Add the sugar, oil, vanilla, almond extract to the soy milk mixture and beat until foamy.

3.    In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.  Add in 2 batches to wet ingredients and beat until no large lumps remain.

4.    Mix earth balance spread and graham cracker crumbs until well combined.  Place 1 tablespoon graham cracker crumb mixture into the bottom of each prepared muffin cup.  Use the bottom of a small glass to pack crumbs into the bottom of each cupcake liner.  Reserve remaining graham cracker mixture for topping.

5.    Place 2 teaspoons chocolate into each muffin cup.  Reserve remaining chocolate for topping.  Transfer muffin tins to oven and bake until the edges of hte graham cracker mixture is golden, about 5 minutes.  Remove from oven and fill each muffin cup 3/4 full with batter.

6.    Bake 18-20 minutes until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean.  Transfer to a cooking rack and let cook completely.

7.    To make frosting, beat shortening and earth balance spread until fluffy.  Add the sugar and beat for 3 more minutes, until smooth.  Add vanilla and soy milk, beat for another 6-7 minutes.

8.    Spread a teaspoon full of frosting on each cupcake.  Top with graham cracker crumbs and chocolate slivers.

    Jen's Kitchen...

    is the smallest kitchen ever.  We used to watch those decorating shows that said they were doing small kitchens and then could see that 4 of my kitchens would fit in their "small kitchens".
    Regardless of size, the kitchen is busy cranking out good things.  Most is natural/organic but that doesn't mean it's always healthy!
