Looking for a treat to make for St Patrick’s Day that’s so good you’re sure to get kissed? You need to make theseย Almond Fudge Kiss Cupcakes!

Whether you’re Irish or not, you’ll be feeling pretty lucky after eating a few of these cupcakes!

These little cakes are fluffy and so buttery (yum!) and they have the delightful aroma of almond that comes from almond extract.

This was my first time making an almond cake, and I know it sounds strange, but I didn’t want to use any actual nuts in the cake, which is why I went with the extract. I modified my butter cake recipe, and it turned out just right! I really love the way the almond extract brightens the flavor of the cake. And it pairs perfectly with the frosting! Oh this fudge frosting…

It’s thick, and rich, and smooth. Not too sugary…I don’t like frosting that’s super sweet. It is chocolatey though!

It has a deep chocolate flavor with just a hint of almond.ย  I could just eat the whole batch with a spoon, really.

    Eek, it looks so perfect girlie! I LOVE the sweet, nutty flavor almond extract lends to cakes and frostings. I can only imagine how decadent this cupcake is! And I super heart the Hershey Kiss adornment, of course ๐Ÿ™‚

    Stephanie can I just say that your photography is gorgeous? Each new post, I am blown away! I am especially in love with the third photo down – the cupcake on it’s side showing just the frosting – gorgeous! And your frosting piping job is perfection, too!! ๐Ÿ™‚

      Thank you so much, Sally! That’s a great compliment coming from you ๐Ÿ™‚ my hubby got me a new lens for my birthday and these cupcakes were the first things I shot!
      Don’t look too close at some upcoming posts…I have SO many from last year that I never shared and I like to think my photog skills have improved since then. ๐Ÿ˜‰

    I really like that there are no nuts in these cupcakes. Sometimes the extract is all you need. And I am not a fan of super sweet frosting either but super chocolatey frosting? Now, I am all over that!! ๐Ÿ™‚

    These sound great and I think Kiss Me Cupcakes would be a good name for these.
