Inspired by those lovely warm Irish liqueurs, this recipe for Irish Cream Amish Friendship Bread Cupcakes has a subtle caramel note coupled with nuggets of sweet white chocolate and a hint of vanilla. It’s a great way to herald in spring or to serve as the perfect after-dinner treat at family gatherings.
Use our recipe for Cream Cheese Frosting and mix in 4 tablespoons of Irish Cream liquid creamer. For the big kids, 4 tablespoons of Baileys Irish Cream liqueur (must be 21 or over). Fill a pastry bag with the frosting and pipe onto the cupcakes once they’ve cooled.
