This recipe for mint chocolate cupcakes starts about 1/2 way through, with the cake mix already made, and adding cocoa powder to the mix. I have to wonder if it'll create a chocolatey enough flavor, but maybe you can check to see if there are other chocolate cupcake recipes that work better for you. Maybe even just get a chocolate cake mix from a box and work with that.

Though it wasn't the original name of the recipe, I dubbed this the “dinner mint” chocolate mint cupcake recipe because there's a total of THREE mints used! Place one on the bottom, then some batter, then another on top. Top with batter again, and bake. After that, another mint goes on top. Yup, three of them.
