1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Directions
Get ready for an adventure!
Prepare Cupcakes
Prepare cake mix with eggs, pumpkin (in place of oil) and Guinness (in place of water). Bake in 24 cupcakes liners (each should be about 1/2 way full) in 350˚ oven for 20 minutes.
Remove cupcakes from oven and let cool while you make the ganache.
Prepare Ganache
In a double boiler heat milk until simmering. Add in chocolate chips and let melt completely stirring constantly with a wire whisk. Remove from heat and stir in whiskey. Place in refrigerator and let cool until ganache begins to thicken slightly (about an hour, but check it!)
When cupcakes are completely cool use a paring knife to scoop about one inch out of the center of each cupcake. Don't go all the way through the cupcake! Aim for about half way from the bottom! NOTE: Give the bowl of delicious centers to someone else, or else you'll eat them while you work.
When ganache is thickened (a liquid not quite as thick as condensed milk) spoon about 1-2 tablespoons into each cupcake. Fill them once, then go through and check for any that absorbed a lot.
Prepare Frosting
Empty contents of frosting tub into bowl (I use a stand mixer with a whisk attachment). Beat in Irish Cream (3 oz) with an electric mixer then beat in powdered sugar. Keep mixing until light and fluffy.
Carefully spoon frosting onto each cupcake and spread over the top (don't even try to spread it with a knife, you'll just make a big chocolately mess).
Makes 24 amazing and messy cupcakes.
