I have looked at this recipe many times and finally made it for my husband today. He loved it!! It has taken 18 years of being with him to finally find a cake recipe he really likes

Thanks a bunch for posting this!!

I made these today. Actually I had not seen your site when I made these, but I made them almost exactly the same! They are so delicious! Great piping on that icing too! My buttercreamed turned out great (best batch so far) but a little stiff so I was not able to do a nice pipe (had to just do plain piped, but since they were just for my husband and I, that is ok. Pictures will be on my blog tomorrow.

Beautiful!

I made them last year…I think it will turn into an annual event.

Yay! I’m glad they turned out good for you! More Irish Cream is never a bad thing! hehe

Sometimes, the ganache does that for me too, more cream usually helps! I’d love to see a picture if you have it!

Made the cupcakes last night – turned out great and really delicious! The cake was nice and moist. I had to use much more Irish cream in the buttercream frosting so good thing I had a full sized bottle, but all the better since the buttercream has a very strong Irish cream flavor.

I wasn’t able to dip the cupcakes, somehow the chocolate wasn’t sticking, so I just took a knife and spread it instead, but it still looked fine. Not quite as smooth looking as yours though.

Hubby is bringing a dozen of these to work today, we were trying to figure out a better name since we are in the UK but haven’t come up with anything clever yet.

Oh I understand! I still plan to make them sometime, hopefully soon. Though I will have to rename them.

Here in the USA, Sandra, the Irish Car Bomb is a drink where you take your shot of liquor and drop it into your beer and chug it! The cupcake is named after the drink because the same ingredients are used in the cupcake. Nothing to do with actual car bombings!

These sound delicious! Living in the UK however, I don’t think the name is very appropriate. Car bombs and violence in Ireland are a serious issue, not sure a cupcake should be named after it?
