Yesterday’s mini cupcake disaster inspired me to turn the rest of the chocolate batter into perfect regular size cupcakes. I was able to salvage enough for 21 perfect Chocolate Mint cupcakes.
The cupcakes are a moist chocolate cupcake topped with a perfectly smooth mint buttercream all topped with green sugar crystals. A perfect combination of chocolate and mint. Yummm-o!
Here’s the recipe, click on the image to make it bigger! The cupcake is my basic chocolate recipe and the frosting a very easy to make mint buttercream. I also recorded a video tutorial while I made the mint buttercream, it’s a bit wobbly, but it shows you how to make the perfect minty goodness!
