Ingredients

Cupcake Ingredients

  • 1 box White cake mix 15.25 oz, ready to use
  • 3 large Egg whites room temperature
  • 1 cup Water
  • 1/3 cup Vegetable oil
  • 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon Mint or peppermint extract depending on taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon Green food coloring or more for a deeper shade

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a cupcake pan with cupcake liners.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the cake mix, egg whites, water, vegetable oil, mint extract, and green food coloring. Mix until smooth.
  • Fill each cupcake liner about 2/3 full with batter.
  • Bake for 15–20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • Allow cupcakes to cool completely before frosting.
  • Frost with your favorite buttercream or whipped topping and enjoy!

Notes

Adjust mint extract carefully: start with 1/4 teaspoon and taste a bit of batter; peppermint can quickly overpower.
