So, the other day I went to Costco………..And I bought a lot.
A whole lot of bourbon! Does anyone else buy Bourbon by the half-gallon?
So, yeah I do not drink. Like at all, never tried the stuff, nor do I plan to. I have many reasons for this, but we will save that for another time. Everyone finds it so weird that I am always looking for alcohol, but do not actually drink it. And you know what I say? Just taste my food! I am telling you people it adds such amazing flavor to both you baking and cooking!
So I made sure I was stocked up for the holidays and went to Costco and bought a half-gallon of the good stuff. Along with some wine, vodka, a large bottle of Kahlua and 3 bottles of vanilla. All for my cooking and baking!
Really is there a better way to use bourbon than mixed with butter and chocolate?
Um and can I just say that Bourbon, chocolate and pecans are a trio made in heaven. Seriously.
The chocolate bourbon cupcakes alone are insanely good! The flavor is just out of this world and the bourbon highlights the chocolate so well. Then add the butter pecan frosting that could be eaten by the spoonful and you may just have one of the most delicious cupcakes of the season!

Bourbon. Chocolate. Pecans. YUM
Working on this recipe as we speak. Is the frosting pipeable at all?
Hey Tina,
Sure you could do that! I hope you love the recipe, please let me know if you have any other questions! xTieghan
I made these last weekend for a housewarming party. They are my new favorite cupcake of all time!! I found that 22 minutes dried the cake a little, so I will shorten that time next time I make them (on Sunday!). Instead of melted chocolate, I melted 8-10 caramel squares with 1 Tbsp. bourbon because I wanted more of a “turtle” flavor to it. I am so glad I found this recipe!!!
Oh my gosh, YAY!! SO happy you love these! Thanks for letting me know!!
