perfect cupcakes for a St Patrick&#8217;s Day party . . . or to take to a Guinness and Bailey&#8217;s lover that you may know.\u00a0 I never would have chosen these cupcakes to try if I hadn&#8217;t been making them for someone else as a present .\u00a0 I don&#8217;t particularly like Guinness (much to my father&#8217;s dismay!), but there is something about the combination of the chocolate and the Guinness that is so divine!\u00a0 It&#8217;s moist, chocolatey, with a hint of the Irish.\u00a0 If you&#8217;re not intrigued yet, you will be with the Bailey&#8217;s buttercream that tops the cake.\u00a0 If you don&#8217;t have Bailey&#8217;s you can use any Irish liqueur, and if you don&#8217;t have Guinness, you can substitute it with Kilkenney or another Irish Stout!<\/p>\n<p><a
