  4. I actually used those new foil liners - no pan necessary.
  5. Bake at 350 for 20 minutes or until tester comes out of the center of a cupcake clean. Immediately do next step.
  6. While cupcakes are baking scrape all the frosting out of the can with a spatula into a medium bowl. Add two tablespoons Limoncello and stir till creamy. Taste. Do you need more? Go ahead then –add more!
  7. Refrigerate while you wait.
  8. Cool cupcakes completely and then frost and sprinkle with zest.
