Bailey's Irish Whiskey Cupcakes

This is actually the first liquored up cupcake I've made.  And it was soooooo good.  Or at least it had A LOT of thumbs up from the recent cupcake party I hosted.

This is a dark chocolate cake soaked in Irish whiskey filled with a hazelnut chocolate ganache topped with a Bailey's buttercream and sprinkled with chocolate sprinkles.  I later added a little St Patrick's Day gold edible glitter.  Just in time for St Patrick's Day!!

I made minis for the party, as is standard, and they were the first to go.  I think I might have one or two left to eat later!!!  YUM!!  I made other alcohol laced cupcakes for the party but there were my favorite.  There was enough liquor to say WOW but not enough it knocked you over!!  I also offer these as standards!

Coming Up!

Mardi Gras is the 8th!  So be on the look out for my King Cake Cupcake!

Sunday will be the cupcake party in South Florida.  There will be a few new cupcakes that I haven't shared yet made at the party so next week look out for those!

Also, I'm a Bailey's nut.  So there WILL be a Bailey's Cupcake (with a twist) to honor

Mr St Patrick on the 17th!

I also have a very ambitious project I will be working on once I return from South Florida.  It will involve cupcakes, of course, and weddings.  I'm hoping it comes out as well as I see it in my head!  If they do, they will be gorgeous!!
