I love frosting and I love chocolate and I love muffins so I combined them into one for one of my all time favorite recipes. Hope y’all like it as much as I do! Happy baking friends

Ingredients

Muffin Batter:

  • 1 cup almond flour

  • 1/2 cup brown rice flour


  • 1/2 cup dairy free yogurt

  • 2 eggs

  • 1/4 cup maple syrup

  • 2 tsp vanilla

  • 1 tsp baking soda

  • 1/3 cup melted chocolate chips

  • 3 tbsp applesauce

  • 2 tbsp cacao powder

  • pinch of sea salt

Frosting/Filling:

  • 1 cup mashed sweet potato

  • 1/4 cup dairy free cream cheese

  • 1 tsp vanilla

  • 1/4 cup maple syrup

  • 1/3 cup almond butter

Instructions

  1. Make the muffin butter by combining all wet ingredients first. Mix well to break apart any clumps

  2. Add in the dry ingredients and stir as you add to keep the flour from sticking together

  3. Using a lined or non stick muffin tin, pour about two to three tbsp batter into 8 containers

  4. Make the frosting by mixing together all the frosting ingredients super well. Feel free to use a blender to get a smooth frosting

  5. Add 1 tbsp frosting into the center of each one. Try to keep the frosting just in the center

  6. Add another tbsp or two of batter on top of the frosting. You may need a little extra on each one to cover up the frosting filling

  7. Bake the muffins for about 40 minutes at 350 degrees

  8. Let them cool and add more frosting on top! Enjoy
