booze

Sometimes we overindulge. It happens, and it's okay. It's holiday party season and man is there a lot of hot mulled wine, hot buttered rum, champagne, hot chocolate with Rumplemintz out there tempting us with its deliciousness. These Japanese gummies claim to help cure a hangover. Ship me a case and I'll let you know if they work. I've got about a gallon of wine on the stove to get through.

I don't think you can make an actual, normal cupcake with booze in it, so this is a perfect variation. With all the new cupcake and whipped cream flavored vodkas on the market now you can make all sorts of boozy faux baked goods. This is the kind of baking I can get behind.

Fruitcake, I think we can all agree, is not a tasty treat. But if you distill the booziness and the cakiness and turn it into a jelly shot, I can get behind it.

Jelly shots aren't always super classy, and little cakes aren't always exciting. But when you can combine the two and get a little boozy jolt from your mini Boston cream pie cake, you've hit the snack jackpot! The snackpot?
