Sweet almonds, tart cherries and fresh lemon, need we say more? The magical blend of ingredients in this recipe uses natural cherry essences blended with almond, lemon and vanilla to recreate the sweet amaretto flavor. Amaretto, commonly made from the pits of almonds and apricots, is a distinct flavor with subtle cherry undertones. This recipe recreates those natural undertones perfectly, which adds a rich taste to this gluten free cookie base.
Looking to create a sweet and festive treat to ring in the New Year? Strawberries are the perfect choice! Their vibrant color and sweet flavor make them a festive addition to any sweet found at the dessert table.

Once baked, the cupcakes are then frosted with a strawberry mint buttercream and topped with freshly minced mint! The result is a batch of delicious, moist and yummy vegan cupcakes that no one will believe are dairy free!Are you expecting vegan guests at your New Year's Party?
