Root Beer Cupcakes

Here is a recipe for root beer cupcakes that actually tastes like root beer. I found the recipe on the Cupcake Project. She got the cupcake recipe from a site called Bittersweet. Now the cupcake project made a frosting with cream soda extract in it. She had to order the extract online. I did not want to wait for extract and order it online. So I went with the frosting by Bittersweet to top the cupcakes.

I must tell you, I DIDN’T like the frosting I used for this cupcake. It did absolutely no favors for this cupcake. I think the cupcake would have taste much better with the frosting that goes with the root beer cookies I have on here. That is the way I will make them next time.

The cupcake has a nice texture. Now don’t be alarmed when you mix this batter together, it is very runny. You can pour the batter into you cupcake tins because it is that runny. I think I may also up the root beer extract up to 1 Tbsp next time, but I think I’ll try it with the root beer frosting first. That may add enough root beer flavor.

Here is what you need to make the
