Rich, dark and creamy are three great words to describe these Thin Mint cupcakes. Yes, you read that right: Thin Mint, like the Girl Scout Cookies. Made from cocoa powder, peppermint extract, ground Kopi Luwak coffee (or any dark roast), brewed coffee and a dash of Thin Mint crumbs, among other more traditional ingredients, the batter alone is hard to resist. Once they are topped with dark chocolate mint ganache and mint cream cheese frosting, they become completely irresistable.
