GIRL SCOUT COOKIE THIN MINT CUPCAKES

Steps:

• Cupcakes:
• Preheat oven to 350°F and line pan with silicone or paper cupcake liners.
• In a large bowl, whisk sugar, eggs, brown sugar, vanilla extract and oil together.
• In a different bowl combine all of the dry ingredients - flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder and salt.
• Pour half of these dry ingredients into the liquid mixture. Stir well.
• Add in the milk and gently stir again. Add in the rest of the dry ingredients, being careful not to over mix.
• Fill the cupcake liners half full and bake for 15-20 minutes or until toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool completely.
• Chocolate Gonache:
• To make the gonache, add the chocolate chips and whipping cream together in a small bowl and microwave for 40 seconds. Remove from the microwave and stir. Continue to microwave until smooth.
• Frost Cupcakes:
• Dip the cooled cupcakes into the gonache and turn right side up to allow gonache to set on top.
• Use the vanilla frosting or your favorite homemade frosting recipe, adding small amounts of green food coloring until you have reached your desired colored.
• Pipe frosting onto the cupcakes and top with a Thin Mints cookie! You can even crush up a few extra cookies and sprinkle them over the top for more yummy deliciousness!
