- 2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted
- 2 tablespoons cacao powder
- 1/2 cup agave or honey

- Preheat your oven to 180?C.rnrnGrease your cupcake tin or fill with cupcake cases. I use the mini silicone trays and grease them with a little sunflower oil and sprinkle with either cocoa powder or desiccated coconut.
- On a low heat melt the coconut oil and honey in a small pan. When its all melted add the almond milk and apple cider vinegar.
- Bake in the oven for 10-15 mins, they will have risen and should be springy to touch. To test you can poke with a skewer and check it comes out cleanrnLeave to cool and get started on the icing
- Melt the coconut oil and dark chocolate in the microwave until its runny.rnrnSpoon the flesh out of the avocado into a blender along with all the other ingredients until super smooth. Then scrape it all out into a bowl and chill in the fridge for the minimum of half an hour.rnIce using a piping bag, if you have a fancy nozzle that will make them look great! Shake over some colourful sprinkles and party away!
