1
teaspoon mint extract
1/2
cup semisweet chocolate chips
1
cup butter, softened
3

1

  • 1 Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pans). Place mini paper baking cup in each of 24 mini muffin cups.
  • 2 Make cake mix as directed on box, using water, oil and eggs. Stir 1/2 teaspoon of the mint extract and 1/2 cup chocolate chips into batter. Fill muffin cups two-thirds full. (Cover and refrigerate remaining batter until ready to bake; cool pan 15 minutes before reusing.) Bake 15 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 5 minutes; remove cupcakes from pans to cooling racks. Cool completely. Repeat with remaining batter to make an additional 48 mini cupcakes.

Gradually beat in just enough remaining milk, 1 teaspoon at a time, to make frosting smooth and spreadable. Spread frosting on cupcakes or pipe with #22 star tip.
  • 4 Sprinkle miniature chocolate chips over frosting. Use vegetable peeler to make chocolate candy shavings; sprinkle on cupcakes.

      These really looked good, so I made them for my daughter's party. Made 7 dozen of them, and 6-1/2 dozen of them will be going into the trash. Really not good at all - mint was very mediciny/alcohol-like, and cakes themselves were not good. Have to say that this is putting me off of this brand for a while - should have just made cakepops like my original plan.
