Cool and refreshing peppermint cupcakes
What is better than the sweet taste of cupcakes combined with the refreshing flavor of mint? There are many versions of the Candy Cane Cupcake. Some people use chocolate cake...some people add mint extract...some people use crushed candy canes. Either way, the end result will be the same, a peppermint flavored cupcake. I like to do mine a little different. I like the colors of a candy cane so I like to stay in that color palette. Here is my version of the candy cane cupcake.
