Mint Chocolate Chip Cupcakes Recipe

Ingredients

For the cupcakes:
1 Box Devil's Food Cake Mix (I used Duncan Hines)
1 Box Mint Oreos
For the buttercream:
2 sticks butter, unsalted & softened
5 C. powdered sugar
2-3 T. milk
1/2 tsp. mint extract
2-4 drops of green food coloring
3-4 T. finely crushed mint Oreos

Preparation

Step 1

Line muffin tins with cupcake liners and set aside. Mix cake mix according to directions on the back of the box. Roughly chop about 18-20 of the mint Oreos and set aside. Fill cupcake liners about 2/3 full and then place 3-4 of the Oreo chunks into each cupcake. Bake according to directions on the back of the box.

Beat butter until fluffy. Gradually add powdered sugar and milk. Beat until combined. Add extract and combine. Add desired about of food coloring and then mix until well incorporated. Stir in the finely crushed Oreos. Frost cooled cupcakes. Garnish with mini Oreos if desired.
