Footnotes
Cook's Note:
Types of alcohol I used are: Red Stripe Beer instead of stout, Jameson Whiskey, and Baileys Original; my filling isn't really that
thick when I cooked mine so if it's kind of thin it's okay. I actually added a lot of Baileys to my frosting because the butter would
never get flu y enough but it turned out fine.
Partner Tip
Reynolds® Aluminum foil can be used to keep food moist, cook it evenly, and make clean-up easier.

Yeah...icing tastes good but started piping and I ran out. Tried to just smear it around and salvage some but still wasn't enough.

Made them for my bf's birthday party and they were absolutely a hit. I had enough for 24 + one larger cupcakes, but had to
make another half batch of the icing for as many.

AMAAAAAAAAZING cupcakes!!!! I skipped the filling, as I had a lot of baking (and a lot of parties) to do. The cupcakes themselves
were DIVINE, and rich-tasting. I didn't change a thing otherwise...
