Directions
1. Combine the soy milk and the apple cider vinegar in a large size bowl. Let stand for 5 minutes.
2. Combine flaxseed meal and water in a small bowl; let sit for 15 minutes or until it becomes a jelly.
3. Grease a 12 tin cupcake pan with oil.
4. Preheat the oven to 350 degree F.
MAKING
5. To the soy milk-vinegar mixture, add the flax seed jelly, the sugars, peanut butter, apple sauce, and vanilla extract. Beat well using a hand mixer or stander mixer.
6. Combine the dry ingredients; flour, baking powder, soda and salt. Add this to the peanut butter mixture. And mix lightly and quickly. Set aside and make the filling.
7. To make the filling, in a bowl, combine the peanut butter, cocoa, sugar, and soy milk. Beat until smooth and creamy.
8. To assemble, in the cupcake pan, spoon equal amounts of the cupcake batter into each of the 12 cups.
