Seems like it’s been forever since I’ve baked anything, let alone cupcakes. Which is absurd!

They even match our cupboard!

I used the well trusted Vegan Cupcakes take over the World recipe for the chocolate cupcake, used apple sauce instead of oil and made these *almost* healthy, there’s a lot of sugar… and the icing isn’t exactly good for you. But who cares, I need my chocolate fix.

We’re going to a “farewell summer” BBQ tonight and I was asked to bring a dessert. Awesome. So I made plain cupcakes from Isa’s “Vegan Cupcakes take over the world” recipe book. This recipe never fails me!

Dippin in the ganache!

The ganache is made from soy milk warmed almost to a gentle boil, throw in some maple syrup and a couple handfuls of semi-sweet chocolate chips and BAMO. crazy amazing ganache. Stir till smooth and let sit at room temp. Then, dip that shit.

And look rad on our new cutting board. (yes, it really is that blue.)

Oh, and yesterday we had some friends over for a Pumpkin carving party. I made some Pumpkin Walnut Raisin muffins and home-made apple cider, the muffins disapeared before I could snap a photo!

I'm an awkward gal with a family of 2 bratty cats, a wee little Boston Terrier and a hungry husband. We live in Portland Oregon and lead a pretty chill life blessed with good local food and micro-brews.

We only cook low-fat and nutritional vegan meals, with a handful of vegetarian dishes. I hope there's at least one recipe that I make that inspires you to create awesome meals in your own home.
