Chocolate Peanut Butter Brownie Cupcakes
Today is a special day, friends! Because today is the day that we are celebrating such an amazing blogger and friend of mine! Jocelyn from Grandbaby Cakes is having her own little baby cake! So today, other bloggers and I have gotten together to give her a virtual baby shower!! Guys, the blogging world is so great. We may not live close to each other, but the love we feel for each other is beyond real.
Jocelyn is pregnant with a little baby girl!! There are about a million things that I love about Jocelyn, but one of them is her positive spirt. She just exudes positivity. I mean, truly, she is one of those people that I look up to because I feel like she is always looking at the positive side of things . . . . and after I learned that she had to go through IVF to become a mother, that love of that positive spirit grew even more. Having gone through intense infertility issues myself, I just can’t get over her. You guys, just go read about her experience. I swear, you will fall in love with her.
Ingredients
For Cupcakes
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 1/2 tsps baking powder
1 1/2 tsps baking soda
1 tsp salt
2 eggs
1 cup milk I used skim
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 cup of creamy peanut butter
2 tsps vanilla extract
For Frosting
1/2 cup unsalted butter room temperature
1 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup milk
8 cups powdered sugar
2 tsps vanilla extract
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Line two muffin tins with 24 cupcake liners.
In a large bowl, mix the the granulated sugar, flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
Add in the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, peanut butter, and vanilla. Stir until the batter is fully combined.
Fill each cupcake liner approximately 2/3 full.
Bake for 20 minutes (in two batches), or until a tooth pick inserted in the middle of a cupcake comes out with just a few crumbs. Allow to cool completely. Once cool, make the frosting.
To make the peanut butter frosting beat together the butter and peanut butter until combined in a stand mixer or with a hand held mixer.
Slowly add in the powdered sugar and then the milk, followed by the vanilla extract. If not smooth and creamy, add a tiny bit more milk.
