I thought I'd experiment a bit with my cupcakes and tried adding a healthy ingredient to them. I normally add ground Chia seeds to my salads, but I thought I'd try adding them to my cupcakes, especially since there isn't much of a flavor to them.
I ended up grinding up coconut flakes in a blender, added the coconut and the chia seeds into the chocolate batter before baking. I topped the cupcakes with vanilla cream cheese buttercream and various retro candies for decoration (jelly beans, nerds, life savers). It turned out really well and people didn't notice a difference in the texture or the moistness of the cupcake.
Finally! A cupcake that really IS healthy for you! :)
