- Put the vanilla frosting in a bowl and stir through 2 tsp of the espresso martini. Next, stir through 3 tbsp of icing sugar until it is thick and holding its shape. Add another 1 tbsp icing sugar if necessary and stir.
- Cut the very top peaks from the muffins to level. Prick each cupcake with a fork and drizzle over the remaining espresso martini (½ tsp over each one). Put a generous spoonful of the frosting on top of each cake and smooth with the back of the spoon or a butter knife. Decorate each with 2 coffee beans, if using.
