* Plus Masculine Sprinkle alternatives!! *

This can, just as easily, be a feminine shot glass cupcake.  I just wanted the challenge of making something "fruity" (sweet cupcakes with adorable sprinkles), transform into a tolerable treat for manly men.  I used some Jagermeister shot glasses, blue and black cake batter and special things for topping.

Keep in mind - with the idea of baking cupcakes in shot glasses, you can really display the colors in a small package.  I love rainbows and unicorns, but maybe you like black and red (which I also love), and you want to show those awesome colors in a shot glass cupcake.  Plus, if you have a collection of glasses, this would be a cool way to show them off at a party, with alcoholic recipe cupcakes, then drink out of them afterwards.  
-----------------------
Disclaimer - I was crazy enough to put shot glasses in my oven.  I live dangerously.  Don't trust me.  BUT, if the glasses seem thick enough to handle it, maybe they are.  Don't turn up the heat beyond 325, because I didn't.  But remember, don't trust me, this is a disclaimer.  :)

Step 1: Tools!

Buff men need tools.

-Make it easy - cake mix.  Mix it.
-Colors, if you like them, divide batter and color.
-Pick your burly toppings.  Make them rough.
-Choose your favorite shot glasses.

*Set oven to 325 degrees.  Don't forget.  (PRE-Heat)

The small canning mason jars work pretty well, too. I think they're the 4 oz size? They're heat resistant, and you can get them in bulk at most craft stores or online. Plus, you can get them with designs on the sides to showcase your pretty/manly colors. Haha

Woah, these look yummy =D
Have you tried baking the cupcakes in a wine glass/martini glass?
Would that glass be too thin to use?
Hmmmm...they can be for girly cupcakes =D

It would be cool to take this idea and use it for irish whiskey cupcakes or rum cupcakes too

bwaha! Went to Goodwill to scavenge for shot glasses yesterday. I only found about three of them hopefully I'll come across some more. I got a jagermeister one, but it's a pedestal shot glass. Hopefully that will bake okay. :x

Very cool!

I would just like to mention that if people are afraid of baking glass that steaming is an option too.

While reading this recipe, I couldn't help but hear the sweet sounds of Tim Allen's manly woofs and barks.
