Start by preparing the frosting by adding all of the cream cheese ingredients to a high speed blender and blend until really creamy.
Pour the frosting mixture into a bowl, cover it, and let it set in the freezer for about 2-3 hours.
Prepare the cupcake base by adding all of the base ingredients except the extra 1/2 cup almond flour to a high speed blender and mix well until creamy.
Pour the base mixture into a bowl and add the remaining almond flour, then mix together with a spoon or clean hands.
Roll the mixture into balls and coat half of each ball with the coating almond flour.
Press the balls into cupcake shapes using a cupcake mold approximately 2 inches in diameter.
Decorate the top with the frosting and some blackberries.
