Steps to make Light (or Dark) Beer Cupcakes!:
  1. Begin with the dry ingredients. Mix well together in one bowl.
  2. In a seperate bowl, whisk the eggs until very well beaten. Add in the milk, the vanilla extract, the buttermilk and the oil or applesauce (as a healthy alternative to oil).
  3. Add the wet ingredients to the dry
  4. Do not mix excessively or the cupcakes will turn out chewier than they should be.
  5. Add to muffin tin. Should make 20-25 cupcakes
  6. Pop into the oven at 350°F for fifteen to twenty minutes
  7. For the icing, mix the room temperature butter with the room temperature cream cheese until it becomes a smooth mixture.
  8. Add the pinch of salt and ensure the icing sugar is well sifted before adding to the butter mixture
  9. Choose between adding the red food colouring, or the cocoa powder to make a light pink frosting or a light chocolatey type to compliment the beer cupcakes.
  10. Add a small taste of beer or sweet wine to the frosting mix without making it too thin.
  11. When the cupcakes are finished, wait until they mostly cool before frosting.
  12. For a Valentine's Day theme, drop one conversation heart candy on each cupcake if frosted with pink frosting. For the chocolate, richer cupcake, sprinkle cocoa powder on the frosting to finish

Hefeweizen (a traditional wheat beer from Germany) isn't too bitter, and ground cloves and orange zest enhance its natural flavor. In a bowl, whisk the sour cream with the eggs and vanilla, then add to the beer mixture. Sift together the flour and baking soda, and fold into the batter. These cupcakes are made from scratch with a stout beer, then filled with an Irish whiskey-chocolate filling and topped off with some Irish cream icing. Let the cupcakes cool while you make your frosting.
