Serve these dark chocolate gluten- and dairy-free cupcakes for a special birthday or holiday treat. The only dairy in this recipe is the butter in the frosting. For a dairy-free buttercream, try my Whipped Chocolate Frosting. Try decorating these cupcakes with crushed rose petals, crushed freeze-dried raspberries, or fresh raspberries! Organic cane sugar can be used in place of the coconut sugar if you prefer slightly sweeter cupcakes.
