cinnamon cupcakes

These fireball cupcakes from Delish.com taste exactly like your favorite Hot Tamales candies.

Fireball Cupcakes

yellow cake mix

cinnamon

c. vegetable oil

eggs

c. Fireball whisky, divided

c. (two sticks) unsalted butter, softened

c. powdered sugar, divided

pure vanilla extract

kosher salt

Yellow and red food coloring

tamales,

I used a chocolate cake mix and poked holes with a fork in the adult ones (green wrappers) and brushed Fireball on the tops to soak in. They were delicious!

This recipe is delicious! I found that the frosting produced a lot more than I needed so next time I may cut that in half. I also added cinnamon to the frosting!

These were super easy to make. I made half the icing as suggested by previous reviews, but I used the same amount of Fireball for an added kick! These were a hit.

Cinnamon Cupcakes with Brown Sugar Cinnamon Buttercream

all purpose flour

baking powder

salt

unsalted butter (room temperature)

sugar

eggs (room temperature)

sour cream (room temperature)

buttermilk (room temperature)

vanilla extract

brown sugar

confectioners' sugar

heavy cream

Preheat the oven to 350°F/175°C. Line a 12-cup pan with cupcake liners. This recipe makes 13-14 cupcakes.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt.

In a small bowl, combine the ½ cup of sugar and cinnamon for the cinnamon sugar swirl.

In a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, beat the butter and sugar together on medium-high speed for 2 minutes. It should become light and fluffy.

Add the eggs and vanilla extract, then beat again on medium speed

Add in the sour cream, beating on medium-low speed until well combined

With the mixer running on your lowest speed, add the dry ingredients

With the mixer still running on low, slowly pour in the buttermilk. Stop the mixer.

Use an ice cream scooper to fill each cupcake liner with 1 tablespoon of batter. Sprinkle over 1 teaspoon of cinnamon sugar, then another tablespoon of batter. Take a toothpick and swirl the batter together then sprinkle over another teaspoon of cinnamon sugar.

Bake for 20-23 minutes. A toothpick inserted will come out clean with no crumbs. Let cool completely. Your cupcakes might have split at the top, almost like a muffin - this is ok!

Make Cupcakes

In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter and brown sugar together on low speed until well combined.

Slowly start adding the confectioners’s sugar on your lowest speed

Increase the speed to medium-high and beat for a 2 minutes until it becomes very thick.

Stop the mixer and add the salt, vanilla, and cinnamon in to the bowl. Beat on medium-high speed for another 2 minutes.

Turn the mixer to your lowest speed and pour in the heavy cream. Beat until it becomes very creamy and spreadable.

Make Frosting

I have made this recipe a few times and people just love it. Thank you for sharing it!

Wait redacted I found the sour cream in the recipe

This recipe is so hard to follow. The directions are vague, what do you mean add the sugar? The 1/4 cup or the 1 cup? Also why did you list sour cream and it didn’t even show up in the recipe. 👎

Just made these cupcakes and they were delicious! Be sure to cream your butter for a few minutes before adding any sugars - I beat my butter for about 5-8 minutes on medium high speed. I would recommend adding less sugar in the batter and frosting because of how much sugar is being added overall and will definitely use less next time, but these cupcakes were truly delightful. Would definitely make again!
