FOR THE CUPCAKES:
2-1/2 cups All-purpose Flour
3 teaspoons Baking Powder
1/2 teaspoons Salt
1/2 teaspoons Cinnamon
1-1/2 cup Granulated Sugar
½ Tablespoons Butter, At Room Temperature

_____
FOR THE BUTTERCREAM:
1 cup Butter
4 cups Powdered Sugar
3 Tablespoons Irish Cream Liqueur

1
Preheat oven to 350u00b0F. Line muffin tins with 24 cupcake liners.
2
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and cinnamon.
3
In the bowl of an electric mixer, cream together sugar and butter until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes. Add eggs and egg whites one at a time, beating on low between each addition. Add vanilla.
4
Add flour slowly in 3 additions, alternating with Bailey's, starting and ending with flour.
5
Fill cupcake liners about 2/3 full and bake 15-17 minutes, or until a cake tester comes out clean. Allow to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
6
For the frosting, beat butter in an electric mixer until light and fluffy. Add powdered sugar 1/2 cup at a time, until completely mixed. Add the Bailey's and beat until well combined.
7
Poke holes in the tops of the cupcakes and brush some Bailey's on each before frosting. Load frosting into a piping bag fit with a large tip and decorate as desired.
8
If you want to frost all 24 cupcakes with as much frosting as I've pictured above, you'll want to double the frosting recipe.
