Bring these gorgeous peppermint hot chocolate cupcake to your family gathering during this holiday season for an extra special party, or eat them all by yourself and become one with your couch.

 

And if grandma actually tries one of these during your annual family gathering, well you better invite me next year!

 

The peppermint taste in these cupcakes is perfectly balanced and not overpowering. The cake itself is moist and flavourful. The cupcake without garnish can even be frozen for later cupcake needs. What is there not to like?

Infusion Info

This recipe is sensitive to changes in oil. This means that the quantity of oil should not be changed. If you want a strong cupcake, use a stronger oil and if you want a weak cupcake, use the quantity of oil that would give you the potency wanted and complete with regular oil.

Want a sober version? Simply use regular un-infused oil!

 

Always clearly label your edibles, keep them out of reach of children and pets, and don’t eat more than you can handle.

It’s not a race. Take it slowly

Ingredients

The vanilla bean paste makes a beautifully speckled icing but if you don’t have any, simply replace it with clear vanilla extract, so that the icing keeps its white as snow look.

 

This batter is more liquid than most cupcake recipe, but it creates a beautifully moist cupcake as an end result. They also stay this way for a long time because this recipe uses oil instead of margarine.

 

If you don’t know, regular marshmallows aren’t vegan because they are made with gelatin, which is animal-based. I personally like to use Dandies, one of the only brand of vegan marshmallow I can find in my city. They look and taste like regular marshmallows, but they can be expensive. This is why I snatch them up whenever they come on sale.

 

Are you a chocolate lover?

You should try our chipotle and sea salt Brownies!
