Chocolate Mint Cupcakes

My last experiment was to attemt to make some cupcakes for St. Patrick's Day. These were made from a milk chocolate cake mix with Andies candies mixed in. Then topped with a mint buttercream icing that I added a little green food coloring to and then sprinkled some more Andies on top. They definitely hit the St. Patrick's Day theme although I felt they were a bit too minty for me. People said they liked them but I'm not sure if they're just being nice or they really liked them.

Last night's book cake was hit and with the icing in the middle it looked like a "real" cake! Back to class tomorrow night so we'll see what I can make tomorrow!
