Today I felt like getting a good dose of minty goodness. These cupcakes are so much better than brushing your teeth! Though I am certainly not advocating that you eat cupcakes over brushing your pearly whites! But, well you can swallow this minty mouthful!
Anyway I am side tracking, lets move on and see what Minty recipes I can find! Remember if you have an idea for one of our ‘five lists’, let us know!
1. Chocolate Mint Chip Cupcakes with Mint Swiss Meringue Buttercream
Mmmm, these cupcakes from Taste and Tell Blog look sooo good. They have the recipes which are from How to Eat a Cupcake and Crazy about Cupcakes, but both are here for you to whip yourself up a batch. Go on! You deserve it.
2. Rich Chocolate Cupcakes filled with Chocolate Mint Gananche topped with Mint Buttercream
More yummy sounding cupcakes. These cupcakes are from Cupcake by Chocylit and use fresh mint for that authentic mint flavor.
3. Mint Creme De Menthe Mini Cupcakes
These cupcakes are a creation of Cupcake Rehab and were made in celebration of St Patrick’s Day earlier this year. The cute little trick with these is to dribble a bit of the Creme de Menthe on the cupcake before frosting it. According to the website the cupcake will soak up the green goodness which will make the centre of the cupcake green! Oh and those really cute clovers are cocktail sticks with their bottoms broken off! Cool idea!
4. Coconut & Herbal Mint Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting
These are coconut milk cupcakes which Garret has created and then frosted with coconut cream cheese frosting. So where is the mint? Well apart from sitting pretty on top of the cupcake they are also inside the cupcake! The full recipe is on the Vanilla Garlic website for you to try!
5. Chocolate Souffle Cupcakes with Mint Cream
I love how Smitten Kitchen showcases her recipes, full of beautiful photos, but best of all is this white chocolate mint whipped cream that she uses to pump into the centre of these little cuppies. It is so white! Well that is until it is sprinkled with chocolate.
