For a richer chocolate flavor, use dark chocolate chips.
Be careful not to over-bake the cupcakes, as they can become dry.
If you don't have Irish cream liqueur, you can substitute with milk or cream, but the flavor will be different.
For a non-alcoholic version, replace the Irish cream liqueur with Bailey's Coffee Creamer.
Store frosted cupcakes in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
