Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
-
In a separate large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
-
Gradually mix in the dry ingredients, alternating with the milk. Stir until just combined.
-
Fill each cupcake liner about two-thirds full with the batter. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
While the cupcakes are cooling, prepare the peanut butter frosting. In a bowl, beat together the peanut butter, powdered sugar, and milk until smooth and creamy.
-
Once the cupcakes have cooled completely, frost them with the peanut butter frosting. Sprinkle mini chocolate chips and chopped peanut butter cups on top.
-
Allow the cupcakes to rest for 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
