Time 40m

Yield 20 Cupcakes, 20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (16 ounce) box yellow cake mix
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cup vegetable oil
3 large eggs
1 1/4 cups whiskey, divided
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
4 cups powdered sugar, divided
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 pinch kosher salt
red and yellow food coloring
hot tamale, for decoration

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350° and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
  • In a large bowl, mix together cake mix and cinnamon, then stir in vegetable oil, eggs, and 1 cup Fireball. Bake according to package directions. Let cool completely before frosting.
  • Make Fireball frosting: In a large bowl, combine butter, half the powdered sugar, vanilla , salt, and remaining 1/4 cup Fireball.
  • Using a hand mixer, beat until smooth. Add the remaining 2 cups powdered sugar and beat until light and fluffy.
  • Gently stir in yellow food coloring, then red, being careful not to overmix (you want it to be streaky).
  • Pipe frosting onto cooled cupcakes and garnish with one Hot Tamale each.
