Maple Bacon Whiskey Cupcakes

Maple Bacon Whiskey Cupcakes

Looking back, I have this to regret, that too often when I wanted a cupcake, I did not have one.

-David Grayson


Life is to short to not enjoy cupcakes as often as you desire. Especially when those cupcakes are topped with a boozy buttercream, candied bacon & a syrup drizzle!

It has been very well established that I am a savory over sweet kind of girl, but my lord these whiskey cupcakes can convert anyone. They bring together every element that you could possibly look for in a dessert. You have a moist cupcake that is topped with a delicious sugary whiskey filled buttercream & a savory piece of bacon on top to bring all the perfection together.

I had the pleasure of making these for a friends birthday a few weeks ago & they were a HUGE hit. [Don’t worry, everyone at the party was over 21 so it was also audience appropriate]. Not only was it fun to provide an adult beverage inspired dessert, but the bacon & maple flavored cupcakes were such a unique spin on a classic treat!
