Chocolate Peanut Butter Cupcakes Recipe

in #food7 years ago

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

Thank you for sharing the recipe cake @lily-da-vine. Your post makes me know how to make chocolate pea cookies. I will try to make a cookie from the recipes you share on this platform.

Yum! Looks heavenly!

They were too good.

Like hiding in the corner so your friends don't see you eat a third one good.

The peanut butter buttercream looks so delicious. What did you decorate the cupcake and plate with? They look like chocolate coated marshmallows. Nice post.

Thats what they are!

A good guess!!

Looks delicious! Definatly have to try it out myself, thanks for sharing the recipie. Great post #keepsteemin! :)

I am delighted. Thank you for continuing to write.

@lily-da-vine I have written a tribute to your beautiful Chocolate and Peanut Butter Cupcakes. Please allow me........

Oh chocolate peanut butter cupcakes
How you taunt me

In your powdery presence on high rail
How you taunt me

My love of the peanut butter
Has shaped my day dreams

I know not how to create the buttery clone
As my skills in the kitchen, I am not astute

For now a spoon
and the peanut butter jar
are my sad pale substitute

Cheers,
BuckyDurddle

YUM! What is better than chocolate with peanut butter together?! :D

I also have a recipe on my steemit blog. But the other way around. So the frosting is with chocolate and the cupcake with peanut butter in it. ;)

Thanks for sharing this great recipe with these mouth-watering photos @lily-da-vine!
