MINI BLUEBERRY CUPCAKES


Do you love blueberries and chocolate? Then you will love these mini blueberry cupcakes made of chocolate chunk cookie dough filled with fresh blueberries and topped with vanilla blueberry frosting. YUMMY!



What I love most about this recipe is that it is so easy and that it allows you to prepare healthy, raw treats in just a few minutes. It also only requires a little number of ingredients - perfect for a Sunday afternoon when you suddenly feel the urge for some kind of dessert.


These cupcakes are not only too pretty, but they will satisfy every craving that you might experience and are also loved by my non-vegan friends :)


Enjoy them with a good cup of herbal tea or as a snack in between. They keep 3-4 days in the fridge and at least one week in the freezer.
