Tips for Making this recipe

Make sure you have 2 large mixing bowls, as you will mix the dry ingredients separate from the wet ingredients.

If you are counting carbs, there are 4 net carbs per keto cupcake. Net carb count is before adding any frosting, so if you are making these keto cupcakes, be sure to add in the carb count for the frosting as well when figuring out the total carbs.

Sugar Free Chocolate Cupcakes Ingredients

It is also very important that your eggs, egg whites, and heavy cream are room temperature when you make these sugar free chocolate cupcakes.

• Almond flour. I stick with the Bob’s Red Mill Super-Fine Natural Almond Flour but you can use your favorite brand if you want to.
• Coconut Flour. I stick with the Bob’s Red Mill Organic Coconut Flour, but you can use your favorite brand if you want to.
• Baking soda.
• Baking Powder.
• Salt.
• butter. 
• xanthan gum.
• granulated stevia. If you are not a fan of stevia then you can use  Lakanto Monkfruit Sweetener.
• eggs.
• egg whites. I find it easier to use an egg whites separator verses trying to mess with separating the egg using the egg shell.
• vanilla extract. I much prefer to use homemade vanilla then the store bought vanilla extract that you get in the store whenever I am baking.
• liquid stevia. If you are not a fan of stevia then you can use Lakanto Liquid Monkfruit Sweetener
• heavy cream.
• apple cider vinegar.
• sugar-free chocolate chips. I personally always use lily’s chocolate chips in my baking. I find they have the best flavor when making anything with chocolate.

How to Make Sugar Free Chocolate Cupcakes

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.

 In a mixing bowl mix the almond flour and coconut flour till mixed well. Next add in the baking soda, baking powder, xanthan gum, and salt. Set the bowl aside.

In another mixing bowl mix the butter and the granulated stevia with a hand mixer.

Once your butter and granulated stevia are mixed well, add in your eggs and egg whites one at a time.

Mix well with your hand mixer.

Add in your heavy cream to the egg, butter, and granulated stevia mixture and give it a little bit of mixing.

Then add in the apple cider vinegar and give it a little mixing.

Add in the vanilla and give it a little bit more mixing.

Add in the liquid stevia and give it a little more mixing.

Make sure everything is mixed well.

Slowly add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture. Do NOT over mix.

Melt your chocolate carefully in the microwave in thirty-second increments until the chocolate is melted, making sure to stir between every 30 seconds.

Carefully fold the chocolate into the cupcake batter until combined.

Line your cupcake pan with cupcake liners.

Using a cookie scoop, fill each of the 30 cupcake liners with the cupcake batter.

Bake at 350 for 18-20 minutes. Check them at the 18-minute mark with a toothpick to see if they are cooked.

The toothpick will come out clean if they are. If they are not cooked all the way thru put them back in for 2 minutes. DO NOT OVER BAKE!

Allow the cupcakes to cool for 15-20 minutes before frosting them.
