1 box Betty Crocker® SuperMoist® devil's food cake mix

1 cup water

1/3 cup vegetable oil

1/4 cup bourbon whiskey

3 eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla

Filling

3/4 cup whipping cream

6 oz semisweet baking chocolate, finely chopped

1/3 cup butter, softened

3 tablespoons coffee liqueur

Frosting

1 jar (7 oz) marshmallow creme (1 3/4 cups)

1 cup butter, softened

2 tablespoons vanilla-flavored vodka

3 cups powdered sugar

Garnish

1/4 cup coffee liqueur


Directions:

Cupcakes

  1. Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pan). Generously spray 24 regular-size muffin cups with cooking spray. Make cake batter as directed on box, using cake mix, water, oil, bourbon, eggs and vanilla. Divide batter evenly among muffin cups (about two-thirds full).

  2. Bake 20 to 22 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pans 10 minutes; remove from pans to cooling rack. Cool completely, about 30 minutes.

Filling

  1. In medium microwavable bowl, microwave whipping cream uncovered on High 1 minute 30 seconds or until boiling. Stir in remaining filling ingredients until chocolate is melted. Cover; refrigerate about 60 minutes or until spreading consistency.

Frosting

  1. In large bowl, beat marshmallow creme, 1 cup butter and the vodka with electric mixer on medium speed until blended. Beat in powdered sugar until fluffy.

  2. To assemble, cut tops off each cupcake horizontally. Spread about 1 tablespoon filling onto bottom of each cupcake; add cupcake top. Pipe frosting on cupcake tops. Just before serving, drizzle each cupcake with 1/2 teaspoon coffee liqueur.
