One of the favorite flavor combination’s of the season – now in a bite-sized cupcake version!
This is an easy recipe and a sure hit at any holiday party.
Here’s what you will need:
Devil’s Food Cake mix
- eggs
- oil
- water
- small, bite-sized peppermint patties
- mini cupcake liners
- mini cupcake pan
- Step1: Follow the directions on the cake box and mix all ingredients together.
-
Step 2: Place the cupcake liners in the pan and fill to 1/4″ below the edge of the liner.
-
Step 3: Bake in the oven. While they are baking, unwrap all of the peppermint patties.
3-4 minutes before the cupcakes should be done, open the oven and place one patty on top of each cupcake. Let it continue baking for 3-4 more minutes – enough to melt the patties slightly so that they stick to the cupcake.
-
Step 4: Let them cool, then remove from pan.
The best part – no time-consuming, messy frosting!
Just garnish with little candy canes, or crushed peppermint.
Enjoy!
