Butterbeer Cupcakes

A while back my best friend Jordan came across a recipe for Butterbeer Cupcakes from the blog Amy Bites.  She took a trip to the Harry Potter theme park and sampled the Butterbeer, then formulated her own interpretation via cupcakes!  Genius!

So for Jordan's annual Halloween party, she requested I make these cupcakes.  Always up for a challenge, I happily obliged.  While these cupcakes were incredibly labor intensive (just look at Amy's blog for all the detailed photos!), they were absolutely delicious and well worth the effort.   There were only a few ingredients involved that I didn't have on hand (cream soda, heavy cream, and butterscotch chips).  A must for Harry Potter fans...give them a try!  Thanks Amy Bites for the recipe!
