How to Make Stout Cupcakes With Irish Cream Frosting

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine the melted butter, stout, eggs, and vanilla extract. Mix until well combined.
  4. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Fill each cupcake liner about 2/3 full.
  6. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. Let the cupcakes cool in the tin for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
  8. While the cupcakes are cooling, prepare the Irish Cream Frosting:
  9. In a large bowl, beat the butter until light and fluffy.
  10. Gradually add the powdered sugar, beating until combined.
  11. Add the Irish cream liqueur and vanilla extract. Beat until smooth and creamy.
  12. Once the cupcakes are completely cool, frost them generously with the Irish Cream Frosting.
