Heres a recipe to try. Enjoy!

These cupcakes are irresistibly cute and what's more, they're a great treat for those of us who can't deal with dairy.

Ingredients

   * 2/3 cup vegan margarine (eg. nuttalex)
   * 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
   * 1 cup caster sugar
   * 1 1/2 cups self-raising flour
   * 1 teaspoon of egg-replacer
   * coloured sprinkles, to decorate
   *
     Icing
   * 2/3 cup vegan margarine
   * 2 1/2 cups icing sugar mixture
   * 1 teaspoon strawberry essence
   * food colouring

Method

  1. Preheat oven to 180°C. Line 30 holes of three 12-hole, 40ml-capacity patty pans with paper cases.
  2. Using an electric mixer, beat margarine, vanilla extract, sugar, flour, egg-replacer and 3/4 cup cold water on low speed for 1 minute. Increase speed to high. Beat for a further 4 minutes or until mixture has thickened. Spoon into patty cases. Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown and a skewer inserted into one cake comes out clean. Stand cakes in pans for 2 minutes before turning out onto a wire rack to cool.
  3. Make icing. Using an electric mixer, beat margarine, icing sugar and strawberry essence in a bowl until light and fluffy. Add 2 to 3 drops of food colouring and beat to combine. Place icing in a piping bag or plastic bag with one corner snipped off. Pipe icing onto cakes. Top with sprinkles. Serve.

I have just printed this recipe out actually from taste.com.au.  I thought I would make some to send into my hubbies work.  The only thing I wasn't sure of was the amount for the egg replacer, so I'm pleased you added the amount in your recipe.   Don't they look mouthwatering.

Great recipe, thanks for posting.  

Cheers CupCake  happy

Hey, here is my chai cupcake recipe. It is a altered version of one I found online (don't remember where). It doesn't use egg substitute because I prefer to use things that don't pretend to be something else (just something my partner has influenced me to do)

CHAI CUPCAKES

Ingrediants:
1 cup rice milk
4 black teabags (or 2 tbsp loose black tea)
1/4 cup olive oil
1/2 cup granulated sugar (the original calls for 3/4 but I think they turn out sweet enough)
1 tsp vanilla extract (2 if using fake stuff)
1 & 1/3 cups buckwheat flour (you can use plain flour but I like gluten free)
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp ground cardamom
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1/4 tsp ground cloves
pinch white or black pepper


Method:
Preheat oven to 180 degrees celcius and line tin with cupcake liners. In a small saucepan heat rice milk till almost boiling, add teabags and let sit for 10 minutes. Stir teabags and thoroughly squeeze.
In a large bowl whisk together oil, sugar, vanilla and tea mixture. Sift flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and spices into wet ingrediants. Mix until large lumps disappear (small lumps are fine). Fill liners and bake for 20 minutes until a sharp knife poked into them comes out clean.

Completely cool cupcakes. Powder with cinnamon, nutmeg and vanilla bean powder.


DERICIOUS!

Let me know if you try them happy
