How To Make margarita drunkcups

• Step 1
  Pre-heat oven as directed on box.
• Step 2
  Add the correct amount of butter/oil and eggs as directed on box.
• Step 3
  When it comes to the amount of liquid you need to use (the water) substitute with the mixer and the tequila. (my box says 1 1/4 c. water, so I used 1c. mixer and 1/4 c. tequila)
• Step 4
  Mix all ingredients together and spoon into cupcake holders. Bake as directed. It should make 15-20 cupcakes
• Step 5
  * If you want a little extra tequila in the cakes. Take a small bowl and fill it with tequila. Before icing the cakes dip the tops of each one in the tequila. It gives it just that extra kick! ;)
• Step 6
  Now for the icing:
• Step 7
  In a large bowl, beat the butter with an electric mixer for 1 minute.
• Step 8
  Add 6 cups of confectioners’ sugar, the tequila, lime juice, lime zest and the mixer. Beat on low speed until creamy. Gradually add the remaining confectioners’ sugar, a little at a time, until the frosting is thick and creamy.
• Step 9
  Once the cupcakes are cooled completely...In a icing bag or (what I use) a gallon zip lock bag fill it with the icing (if using the zip lock, once it is full just cut the tip of one corner to make a small hole {about the size of your pinky finger tip})
• Step 10
  Before icing the cake sprinkles​ just a tad of salt then Ice the top of each cake and then place one lime wedge on each one with a few more sprinkles of salt and enjoy!!!!
• Step 11
  * If you are making these and you want to make them child friendly, replace the 1/4 cup rum in the icing with 1/4 cup milk.
