Chocolate Peppermint cupcakes


A few weeks ago I bought some candy canes for photography props but as they were cheap ones 10 out of the 12 in the box were broken :( .... which gave me the idea to make something I'd seen last year here which involved adding crushed up candy canes to icing...yum! :)
 
 
I used a basic chocolate cake recipe and vanilla butter cream and added the crushed candy canes. I was a little worried there might be too many flavours going on in these but actually they turned out delicious! You get the crunch of candy cane and a hit of peppermint with each bit which is delightfully festive! Definitely a winner! :)
