Mint Cappuccino Cupcakes
- 1 box white cake mix (plus ingredients listed to prepare)
- 2 teaspoons instant coffee
- 1 cup butter
- 4 cups powdered sugar
- 3 tablespoons heavy cream (more if needed)
- 1/2 teaspoon peppermint extract
- 1/4 teaspoon instant coffee
- 5 drops white Americolor food coloring
- cut up peppermint patties
- 1 teaspoon instant coffee
- Prepare cupcakes according to package adding in the instant coffee along with the mix.
- (alternatively) you could replace the liquid in the cake mix with cooled coffee, but the cupcakes won't have a white look to them.
- Beat butter and sugar along with cream, mint and coffee, until smooth.
- Pipe icing on cooled cupcakes with a #809 tip.
- Place a piece of peppermint patty on top and dust with some instant coffee.
