Hot Chocolate Cupcakes with Mint Kissed Centers

Mint chocolate is one of my ultimate favorite combinations. So I knew I had to make these right when I saw them! They are SO good!! 
Taste: The cupcakes really do taste like hot chocolate, and the mint and marshmallow adds great flavors!
Texture: The cupcake is moist and spongey, and the mint kissed center melted in in the center almost like a lava cake.
Would I make this again?: Yes, they were really easy and SO delicious!!

1 Devils Food Cake Mix
4 eggs
1/2 Cup vegetable oil
1 small box instant chocolate pudding mix
1 Cup sour cream
3/4 Cup warm milk mixed with 1 packet hot chocolate mix
24 mint truffle kisses (or the Candy Cane ones work great too)

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Place cake mix, eggs, oil, pudding mix, sour cream and mixed hot chocolate into a stand mixer on medium speed. Mix until well combined, about 1 1/2 minutes. Scoop into 24 paper lined muffin tins about 3/4 full. Place a mint truffle kiss into center of each cupcake pressing to bottom. Bake for 18 minutes, remove and top with marshmallow. Return back to oven and bake for an additional 5 minutes or until marshmallows are puffed and just starting to brown. Remove and let cool. You can place a cut straw into each cupcake if desired to decorate.
