Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a cupcake pan with 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 granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
-
Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake liners, filling each about 2/3 full. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Allow the cupcakes to cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
In a small bowl, mix together the peanut butter, powdered sugar, and heavy cream until smooth and creamy.
-
Once the cupcakes are completely cooled, frost them with the peanut butter frosting. Top each cupcake with a mini peanut butter cup.
-
Enjoy!
