RumChata Cupcake Recipe

Found this GREAT Recipe on a Blog, Love. Life. & Creative Things. HAD to share! Here are her notes:

RumChata is sooo delicious. If you haven’t had it, go try it. It tastes like… cinnamon toast crunch in liquid form. I saw a RumChata inspired cupcake recipe and of course, had to make some. They are soooo good…. and very very sweet.

NOTE: This makes A LOT of frosting. I tend to use quite a bit on my cupcakes. I ended up with a cup extra. So, if you don’t use a lot, cut the recipe in half. (I also normally freeze my leftover frosting for use later. I label and date it, I’ve used some that’s been frozen for just about 5 months and it tasted fine)

I would recommend refrigerating the cupcakes if you won’t be serving them right away. If it’s warm, the frosting can melt. Enjoy!
They are soooo good…. and very very sweet. Enjoy!

Step 3
Mix together flour, baking powder, salt, & cinnamon, set aside
Step 4

Step 5
Alternating, add in the flour mixture and RumChata mixture in to the butter and sugar. Start and end with the flour mixture.
Step 6
In a clean mixing bowl, beat egg whites until soft peaks form (this will be easiest in an electric mixer)
