Hot Cocoa Cupcakes

Hello and happy Wednesday, scrappy friends!

I am loving the weather in my neck of the woods, but I know it’s still very cold in many places, so today I am sharing a hot chocolate inspired treat.

I made these hot cocoa cupcakes for my twin girls’ birthday this past weekend and they were a huge hit!!

Ingredients:

  • 1 box chocolate fudge cake mix
  • 1 1/4 cup milk
  • 2/4 cup oil
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 small instant hot cocoa packet
  • 1 box instant dry chocolate pudding mix
  • marshmallow buttercream frosting
  • mini marshmallow bits
  • chocolate syrup

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line 2 muffin tins with paper liners.
  2. Beat the cake mix, milk, oil, eggs, hot cocoa packet, and dry pudding mix together in a large bowl until combined and smooth. Portion the batter evenly into the muffin cups.
  3. Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool completely.
  4. Pipe or spread the frosting onto the cooled cupcakes.
  5. Decorate with marshmallow bits and the chocolate syrup.

I hope you enjoy these cupcakes as much as we did!!
