Made a test batch of these for passover by omitting the baking powder. Also added some vanilla and applesauce and cut the sugar to 1/4 c. These cupcakes were so good were going to make them all year round. Chocolatey but not too rich at all! Makes you feel better about eating dessert since the garbanzo beans are in there. It took about 23-25 minutes to cook as cupcakes and they taste best served hot or room temperature. I didn't really enjoy them right out of the fridge. I topped em with homemade whipped cream and strawberries. Also make sure to bake these in tin liners if your making cupcakes because paper lines will stick!

Turns out as more of a glaze than an icing and was wayy to sweet. I Ended up drizzling it over some fresh whipped cream as a glaze instead and it was just the right amount of sweet. Watch the servings too this recipe makes ALOT (even when halved)
