These cherry and amaretto cupcakes are a seriously indulgent treat. I baked them for Mother’s Day, as cherry is one of my Mum’s favourite flavours. I didn’t manage to post the recipe in time for Mother’s Day, but thankfully these sweet little bakes are a gorgeous gift to give (or indulge in yourself!) any time of the year.
Cherries are in season from July to August, so I did cheat a bit this time in the name of Mother’s Day! You could substitute the fruit, preserve and liquor depending on the season. You could try cranberry and cognac in winter, or blackberries with blackberry liqueur in autumn, or summer fruits soaked in a floral, citrus sweet wine, such as Torres Floralis Moscatel Oro (I’ve tried it – it’s wonderful!)
