I created this chocolate avocado frosting to go with these great cupcakes. They complement each other very well.

This frosting is rich in:

  • Healthy fats from avocado and coconut oil
  • Antioxidants from raw cacao
  • Manganese and zinc from maple syrup
  • Manganese, fiber, and calcium from cinnamon
