I’ve recently come to the realization that I’m just not good at leaving well enough alone. Case in point, the standard cake mix. I just have a really hard time baking it as the package instructs me. Today’s recipe I’m sharing with you is no exception.
See, on Friday, I began the potty training process with my sweet Reagan and by this morning, Momma just wanted some chocolate. Like massive amounts of coping chocolate. And mint. And anything else remotely non-healthy I could throw in there.
So you can thank my sweet princess for the yumminess that is these Mint Oreo Chocolate Chip Cupcakes.
