Not only is avocado jam-packed with healthy fats and fiber galore, but it also makes the perfect creamy base for the delicious chocolate orange icing that we use on these high protein cupcakes. Made to enjoy whenever and wherever you please, because… why the heck should cupcakes have to be enjoyed just for dessert?
