Ingredients:

  • 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/4 tsp baking soda
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1 2/3 cups white sugar
  • 1 1/4 cups water
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 cups chocolate chips (optional)
  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour (optional)
  • 1/4 cup irish cream liqueur (such as baileys)
  • 3 drops green food coloring (optional)
  • 3 cups confectioners' sugar , or more as needed

Directions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  2. Line 24 muffin cups with paper liners.
  3. Whisk together 2 1/2 cups flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, salt, and baking powder in a large bowl until thoroughly mixed.
  4. Beat in white sugar, 2/3 cup butter, water, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and eggs to make a smooth batter.
  5. Place chocolate chips into a bowl and mix with 2 tablespoons flour until the chips are coated; fold chocolate chips into the batter.
  6. Divide batter between the prepared muffin cups, filling each cup about 2/3 full.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of a cupcake comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool completely.
  8. While cupcakes are cooling, beat 1 cup butter, Irish cream liqueur, 2 teaspoons vanilla extract, and green food coloring with an electric mixer in a large bowl until mixture is smooth, thick, and evenly colored.
  9. Reduce mixer speed to low and beat in confectioners' sugar, 1 cup at a time, until frosting is desired consistency. Beat in more confectioners' sugar to make a stiffer frosting.
  10. Spread frosting on cooled cupcakes.
