Chocolate Peanut Butter Cupcakes Recipe

Hi guys, here it is, the recipe to those divine cupcakes I shared the pictures of a few days ago. They're all gone now, and they were so good. Probably one of my absolute favorite ever.

What You Need:
Cupcakes
1 c all purpose flour
1 c granulated sugar
1/2 c cocao powder
1 t baking powder
1/2 t baking soda
1/2 t salt
1/2 c milk
1/4 c melted butter
1 egg
1/2 t vanilla
1/2 c boiling water

Peanut Buttercream Frosting
1/2 c butter, softened to room temperature
3/4 c peanut butter
1 t vanilla
3-4 cups powdered sugar

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and put the liners in the cupcake pan. This made 12 good sized cupcakes for me.
  2. Combine flour, sugar, cacao powder, baking soda and baking powder and salt.
  3. Add milk, melted butter, egg and vanilla and mix until combined, it'll be pretty thick.
  4. Pour in the boiling water while stirring and you'll see it thin out to a nice rich batter. Fill the cups evenly and bake for about 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
  5. Allow to Cool to room temperature.
  6. Combine butter and peanut butter until creamy.
  7. Add the vanilla, combine, then add the powdered sugar until you get a nice stiff frosting.
  8. Using a piping bag or plastic bag with the corner cut off, evenly distribute the frosting and chill for a half hour before serving. I had frosting left over, I'll find something to do with it I'm sure :D
