Cupcake

- ¼ cup unsweetened dark cocoa powder
- ½ cup sugar-free brown sugar
- 1 t baking powder
- ½ t salt
- 3 eggs
- ⅔ cup unsweetened almond milk

Frosting
- 8 oz. cream cheese softened

Cupcakes
Preheat oven to 375℉ and prepare cupcake tins.
Combine the almond flour, coconut flour, unsweetened dark cocoa powder, sugar-free brown sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl.
Add the eggs, almond milk, butter, and vanilla. Combine well.
Add the batter to the cupcake tins. I use a cookie scoop and do about 2-3 scoops, but it comes out to be about ¼ cup. You could also fill it just short of the top of the tins.
Bake for 25 minutes.
Frosting
In a large bowl, whip together the cream cheese and butter with an electric mixer for 1-2 minutes, or until fluffy and creamy.
Add the sugar-free powdered sugar, cocoa powder, sugar-free brown sugar, almond milk, and vanilla extract. Beat with the mixer for another minute, until fully combined.
Frosts the cupcakes.
