- 1 cup butter softened
- 1/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

- Once mixed thoroughly, fill each mini-cupcake space of your mini-cupcake pan ¾ of the way full.
- Bake for 8-10 min. or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean.
- While cupcakes are cooling, make the frosting.
- Beat the softened butter for 2 min.
- Add cocoa powder, vanilla extract, peppermint extract, and milk or sour cream (I used sour cream) and beat again.
