Yes, that’s right. Chocolate cupcakes topped with frosting made with a bit of Baileys Irish Cream Whiskey. Liv for Cake sure knows how to pique my interest. I might eat the entire bowl of frosting before any of it gets on the cupcakes. But don’t tell anyone that! Baileys Chocolate Cupcakes Makes about 16 cupcakes INGREDIENTS […]
Peanut Butter Chocolate Swirl Cupcakes
Ok, I confess, these cupcakes from Viet Vegan are – no great surprise – vegan so this is for our vegan (or vegetarian) friends.
