With New Year\u2019s Eve just around the corner, I thought I\u2019d share this kid-friendly, super moist, super easy to make, Irish Cream chocolate cupcake with you. \u00a0It\u2019s good. \u00a0I mean, really good. \u00a0The chocolate cupcake is the moistest cupcake you\u2019ll ever make, and the frosting is so light and fluffy and has the perfect hint of Irish Cream. \u00a0I used two kinds of Bailey\u2019s coffee creamer to make two different frostings, one Irish Cream, and the other hazelnut. \u00a0Both were delicious!<\/p>\n

Wishing you and your family the most blessed of new years, and a 2012 filled with all things sweet!<\/p>\n

      Cupcakes<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

      Preheat the oven to 350 degrees, and line a cupcake tray with paper liners.<\/p>\n

      In a small bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. \u00a0Set aside.<\/p>\n

      In a medium bowl, whisk together the milk, oil, sugar, and vanilla extract.<\/p>\n

      Whisk in the flour mixture until very well-combined.<\/p>\n

      Pour into the lined cupcake tray, filling each cup about 2\/3 of the way.<\/p>\n

      Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cupcake comes out clean.<\/p>\n

      Let cool completely before frosting.<\/p>\n

      In the bowl of your mixer, beat the butter for 1 minute, until light.<\/p>\n
