• ¼ cup unsweetened applesauce
• ½ cup raw sugar
• 1 cup chocolate non-dairy milk
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1¼ cup whole wheat pastry flour
• ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa

Preheat oven to 350 F. Lightly grease a muffin pan or spray paper cups with cooking spray. In a large bowl, combine applesauce, sugar, non-dairy milk and vanilla. In a medium bowl, whisk flour, cocoa, baking powder and salt. Add dry mixture to wet mixture in 3-4 batches until almost combined. Add chocolate chips and stir until just combined. Spoon batter into muffin cups 3/4 full and bake for 15 to 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove cupcakes from oven and transfer to a wire cooling rack. Once completely cool, ad icing and garnish.
