Chocolate Peppermint Candy Cane Cupcake.....say that three times!!
These are so yummy, this holiday season candy canes run rampant around here, so here is a cute idea, crush some candy canes (I used my robot-coupe/food processor) but when you do it, they may be a little sticky so add a little bit of powdered sugar when processing them. Once you fill your cupcake holders, sprinkle some of the crushed candy cane onto your chocolate cake batter before baking them. Add a little peppermint extract to your buttercream/frosting (and I mean a little unless you want it to taste like medicine...yuck!) When I fill my decorator bag to pipe on the frosting I just put a line of red butter-cream up the middle of it before filling with the rest of the white to give it a candy cane swirl affect.
Dip or drizzle a mini candy cane with chocolate to top it off :0) Cute and delicious!!
