The Bomb: Irish Car Bomb Filled Cupcakes a la Smitten Kitchen for Serious Eats
This is a guest post from Cakespy.
Here in Seattle, every March something extremely joyful happens: all of the cupcake shops debut their individual takes on boozy Irish-themed cupcakes.
However, for those of you not in Seattle (or someplace that embraces Irish-inspired cake flavors as readily), fear not, because I've found a recipe to share, for Irish Car Bomb Cupcakes. And true to their name, they are like explosions of awesome in your mouth.
It's an adaptation of the now legendary version first found last year on Smitten Kitchen, with some small liberties taken. Amazingly, while the alcohol is very much present in these cakes, it somehow manages to not be overpowering, instead imparting sophisticated flavor to the frosting and filling and a decadent fudgy texture to the cake.
For the full writeup and recipe, visit Serious Eats!
