For a more intense chocolate flavor, use dark cocoa powder. Ensure the cream cheese is fully softened for a smooth and creamy frosting. Consider adding a teaspoon of vanilla extract to the frosting for enhanced flavor.

Follow The Directions
01
StepPreheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line 24 muffin cups with paper liners. (5 minutes)
02
StepPlace the bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain the bacon slices on paper towels. (15 minutes)
03
StepMix flour, white sugar, cocoa powder, xanthan gum, baking soda, baking powder, and sea salt together in a bowl. Beat coffee, buttermilk, eggs, canola oil, and 1 fluid ounce whiskey together in a separate large bowl. Slowly mix dry ingredients into wet until combined into a batter. (10 minutes)
04
StepCrumble approximately half of the cooked bacon into the batter and stir; divide batter evenly between the lined muffin cups. (5 minutes)
05
StepBake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 15 to 20 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack. (30 minutes)
06
StepBeat cream cheese, confectioners' sugar, and 1 fluid ounce whiskey together in a small bowl; spread over the top of the cooled cupcakes. Crumble remaining bacon and sprinkle over the frosted cupcakes. (10 minutes)
