Preparation

Step 1

Pre-heat oven to 350. Line 24 cupcake tins with liners. For the cupcakes, whisk the dry ingredients together in a medium sized bowl. In a separate large bowl, whisk together all of the wet ingredients. In three additions, add the dry ingredients into the wet. With an electric mixer, beat for 1-2 minutes. Bake at 350 for 20 minutes.

Step 2

In a large sauce pan, melt all of the caramels and milk. Add in Bourbon Smoked Salt. Set aside.

Step 3

For the icing, whip the softened butter and vanilla until it is fluffy. Gradually add in powdered sugar and cocoa. If the icing is too thick, gradually add milk.

Step 4

When the cupcakes are cool, cut a hole into the top of each cupcake and dollop a 1-1/2 tsp of the caramel filling. Top with icing and sprinkle with salt.
