Chocolate Dipped Greek Yogurt Cupcakes
I love starting the week off with chocolate. Especially a chocolate recipe that isn’t chemical laden and relatively easy to make. I used my favourite spelt flour and a little Greek yogurt for some tang. The chocolate dip is a blend of dark chocolate chips and uber healthy coconut oil that creates a delicious hard chocolate shell when it’s refrigerated.
These cupcakes can do double duty by being both a tasty treat or a kick start to your day as a little breakfast muffin. Your call. I’ve been enjoying them morning, noon and night since I made them, so…#dontjudge
Start by whisking together the dry ingredients.
Combine the remaining ingredients in a larger bowl, then gradually incorporate the dry mixture.
Stir in the chocolate chips.
Spoon the batter into your muffin tins. I used mini tins for this recipe but you could use regular sized as well.
Once your cupcakes pass the toothpick test they are ready to sit and cool down. Can we take a quick moment for how cute my little red mini muffin tins are? Love these:)
While your cupcakes are cooling down, prepare your chocolate dip. All you need is the chips and coconut oil. I microwaved them for 30 seconds, then stirred until smooth and velvety.
One by one, dip your cupcakes into the chocolate dip and transfer them to the rack.
Pop them into the fridge for 20 minutes or so and viola! You now have a nice, light cupcake with lovely hits of chocolate chips all wrapped up in a crisp, chocolate shell. Delish!

Wow, your cupcakes turned out beautifully! I like that you only used a mixture of two flours instead of three, it makes it easier that way. I’ll have to try it next time I make the donuts! 🙂
