From the kitchen of Captain Scott Green. The highly coveted Chocolate
Guinness cupcake. They have a wonderful Ghirardelli chocolate Bailey's
ganache filling. The frosting is made with Bailey's and Jameson Irish
Whiskey. The frosting is ridiculous. I couldn't stop licking the bowl. These
are by far the best cupcakes I have ever made, and possibly ever tasted.
