I made some plain buttercake mix up and just spooned it into the regular cupcake patty cases. I was going to be a little more complex and use a chocolate cake mix too. Ya know, to create the marble effect, but by the time I got to baking the cakes it was a little too late. The cakes turned out great!! I must remember to use buttercake mix when making cupcakes again, as it seems to be a little more dense than the chocolate or vanilla mixes.
I topped the cakes with White Chocolate Ganache with Peppermint essence mixed in. Then I sprinkled 100s & 1000s over the top of that. Would have been perfect if I'd gotten the consistency of the Ganache right. I think I used too much cream for the amount of chocolate.
Anyway here is a pic of what they looked like!
They look yummy!!!!!!!!!!!!
