Number Of Ingredients 13

1 box Betty Crocker™ Super Moist™ triple chocolate fudge cake mix
3 eggs
3/4 cup coffee-flavored liqueur
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup cold brewed coffee
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/4 cup milk chocolate chips, melted
1/4 cup coffee-flavored liqueur
4 cups powdered sugar
1 cup whipping cream
1 cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons Irish cream liqueur
1/4 cup chocolate shavings

Steps:

Heat oven to 350°F. Place paper baking cup in each of 24 regular-size muffin cups.
In large bowl, beat all cupcake ingredients with electric mixer on low speed 30 seconds. Beat on medium speed 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Divide batter among muffin cups.
Bake 20 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes; remove cupcakes from pans to cooling racks. Cool completely, about 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, in large bowl, beat butter, melted chocolate and 1/4 cup coffee-flavored liqueur with electric mixer on medium speed until blended. Gradually add 4 cups powdered sugar, 1 cup at a time, beating on low speed until frosting is smooth and creamy. Spoon frosting into decorating bag; refrigerate until ready to use.
In medium bowl, beat whipping cream, 1 cup powdered sugar and the Irish cream liqueur with electric mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form. Spoon whipped cream into second decorating bag; refrigerate until ready to use.
Cut tips off decorating bags; place both bags in a larger decorating bag fitted with star tip. Squeeze bag to pipe frosting and whipped cream together on cupcakes. Sprinkle with chocolate shavings. Store in refrigerator.
