Chocolate Cupcakes with Peppermint Frosting

Chocolate and peppermint come together for this delicious cupcake treat!

Ingredients

  • Cupcakes:
  • 1 bag Robert Rothschild Farm Chocolate Gourmet Cupcake Mix (included)
  • 3/4 cup Water
  • 1/4 cup Oil
  • 1 Egg
  • Frosting:
  • 2 containers Robert Rothschild Farm Gourmet Frosting Base (included)
  • 1 cup* Powdered sugar
  • Directions
    1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Combine cupcake with water, oil and egg and hand mix until well-blended.
    2. Evenly fill muffin cups 2/3 full with batter. Bake for 17-22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
    3. Remove from oven and place on a wire rack to cool. Yields 12.
    4. Mix frosting ingredients until smooth and top cooled cupcakes as desired.
    5. Decorate to your heart’s content – for instance, sprinkle crushed peppermint on top of cupcakes.
    6. *Add more or less powdered sugar to achieve your desired thickness – less for more of a cupcake glaze and more for a stiffer frosting.
    7. For an elegant twist on traditional cupcakes, use the included frosting base as a filler. Simply fill the muffin cups half full. Dollop a 1/4 tsp. of the frosting base into each and fill with remaining cupcake batter. Bake as above and enjoy!
