This healthy double chocolate chip cupcake recipe made with avocados is a fun alternative to the brownie recipe that we have grown to love…but with a little twist. In my testing phase I discovered how amazing the combination of greek yogurt and vanilla flavored Collagen Creamer are topped with fresh raspberries. And it is even better as a topping for these cupcakes. Best of all, they are perfect to serve for brunch and as a dessert during your next dinner party. Keep scrolling for the recipe.
There are some that don’t like the texture and taste of avocados. Rest assured, you won’t get any of that. In fact, the avocados add to the moistness of these cupcakes.
For this recipe I thought it would be fun to make my own liners with parchment paper. They are surprisingly easy to make. Check out this quick 5 minute Youtube video tutorial How To Make Easy Cupcake Liners with Parchment Paper by Iconicake Stuff to see how.
