Cooking Directions

Chocolate Cupcakes

1. Preheat your oven to 180 degrees celsius. Line a muffin tray with cases.
2. Mix together the plain flour, cocoa power, baking powder and sugar. Stir in the dairy free milk and vegetable oil. Gradually add the cold water, enough to make a smooth batter. Mix in the vanilla essence.
3. Spoon the mixture into the cases and bake for 15-17 minutes. Leave to cool completely before starting the icing.

Vanilla Buttercream Icing

1. To make the buttercream, beat the butter lightly to soften it then gradually fold in the icing sugar, then stir through the vanilla extract.
2. Spread the buttercream on top of the cooled cupcakes.
3. For the decorations, use your food colouring to decorate the marshmallows to look like snowmen.
4. Place the marshmallows on top of the buttercream, squishing them down into the icing, dust the cupcakes with icing sugar (to look like snow!), arrange the vegan smarties on top then enjoy!
