Rich Dark Choc and Goji Berry Cupcakes – Gluten, Wheat & Refined Sugar Free

Another sweet recipe! This one is super simple – its all done in the Food Processor although mixing by hand would work just as well.
I found that these ones have risen a bit better than the Gluten Free Banana & Dark Choc Muffins. Husbean thought they tasted delicious so they must be a winner. Perfect if you need a Chocolate Fix that’s full of wholesome ingredients with no nasties! Sure to be a hit in the school lunchbox and they look pretty tasty too X

1/4 Cup Coconut Sugar

Now add the Cocoa, Milk, Baking Soda, Almond Meal and Coconut Flour and Process until well combined and resembling Cake Batter. Finally Mix in the Goji Berries with a Spoon, if you process them they might get chopped up!
