    1. I've also made them with Truvia but not with the stevia powder. It would be about 4 tbsp +2 tsp of Truvia.

    2. I am new to the whole sweetener thing. Do you mean 4 tbsp Truvia for the batter and 2 tsp for the frosting?

      Delete
    3. That would be just for the batter.

  6. Fabulous! I used Stevia because it's what I had and it turned out just fine.

  12. dorinda I just saw your comment on how much xylitol just a few T. less than what the recipe states and I did some shakes of stevia, they were plenty sweet, just taste the batter to see, I could have even used less

  13. oops sorry about all these comments but I also used melted grass fed butter for better flavorinstead of coconut oil, I use coconut oil but I like the flavor of butter better, I've never had any recipe that uses only coconut flour to taste good, and I love that because its so much cheaper than my honeyville almond flour that I love

  15. I am out of coconut flour but would like to make this today, can I use almond?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. I have not tried using almond flour in the recipe. The liquid ingredients would be a little different if using almond flour.

  16. Should I be using swerve granular or confectioners? Thanks!

  17. Which coconut flour do you buy?

    ReplyDelete

    1. I usually buy Bob's Red Mill coconut flour.

    2. I made the cupcakes this week using Nutiva coconut flour. I didn't notice a difference other than the Nutiva was way cheaper than BRM at the grocery store!

  18. These tasted great, however they were dry and crumbly. I would like to make them again, but I wonder if anyone else has had this issue or if there is something I can add that would give it more moisture.

    ReplyDelete
  19. These are the best! I make them all the time!

  20. I had a search through the link, but believe it or not I am really unsure of what would work for us.

  21. very nice! the choco cupcakes look very delicious, and more importantly the recipe looks very simple, for my daughter to bake them, she's into papa's cupcakeria (online cupcake baking game) lately and she asked me to teach her how to bake real ones. Great recipe. Thanks.
