PEANUT BUTTER CUPCAKES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line your cupcake pans with your choice of cupcake wrappers.
• Place your self-rising flour, cake flour, and sugar in the bowl of your mixer. Mix them together for a minute or two until they are well combined.
• Cut your butter into tablespoon pieces. Slowly add your butter into the flour mixture one piece at a time continue mixing until you have reached the texture of sand. Add in the peanut butter and stir until combined.
• Pour half of your milk into the flour mixture and mix just until the milk is incorporated. Use your rubber spatula to scrape down the sides of your bowl. Add your remaining milk and the vanilla to your batter and mix until combined.
• Slowly add in one egg at a time to the cake batter, making sure each egg is incorporated before adding the next egg.
• Scoop the batter into the prepared cupcake pan, filling them 3/4 of the way full.
• Bake for 10 minutes then rotate the cake pans so the pan that was on the top rack is now on the bottom and the pan that was on the bottom is now on the top rack. Continue to bake for another 10-13 minute until a toothpick comes out clean from the center of the cupcake.
• Transfer the cupcakes to a cooling rack until they have reached room temperature.
• Once cool they are ready to be decorated.

PEANUT BUTTER CUPCAKES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C). Line a 12-cup muffin pan with cupcake liners. Line a second pan with 2-3 liners because this recipe yields 14-15 cupcakes. Set aside.
• Whisk the flour, baking soda, and salt together in a medium bowl. Set aside.
• Using a handheld mixer, stand mixer fitted with a whisk or paddle attachment, or a whisk, mix the oil, peanut butter, brown sugar, egg, sour cream, and vanilla extract together in a large bowl. Add the dry ingredients, milk, and peanuts and whisk or beat together until completely combined. Avoid overmixing. Batter will be slightly thick.
• Pour/spoon the batter into the liners, filling only 2/3 full to avoid baking over the sides. Bake for 21-23 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean and the tops of the cupcakes spring back when gently touched. For around 35 mini cupcakes, bake for about 11-13 minutes, same oven temperature. Allow the cupcakes to cool completely before frosting.
• With a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a paddle or whisk attachment, beat the butter on medium speed until creamy, about 2 minutes. Add confectioners' sugar, cocoa powder, and milk. Beat on low speed for 30 seconds, then add the peanut butter, vanilla extract, and salt. Beat on medium-high speed for 2 minutes until combined. Add 1/4 cup more confectioners' sugar if frosting is too thin or another 1-2 Tablespoons of cream/milk if frosting is too thick. Taste. Add extra peanut butter or a pinch of salt if desired.
• Frost cooled cupcakes. I piped a basic tall swirl using Ateco 849 piping tip. You can watch me decorate the cupcakes in the video in the blog post. Garnish with peanut butter cup, if desired.
• Cover and store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.

• Roll out about one fourth of the peanut butter mix.
• Take the top of the cupcake and place on top of any area on the rolled out peanut butter dough.

SOFT-SERVE PEANUT BUTTER CUPCAKES

Snip ends off both bags of buttercream; insert them in pastry bag with tip. Squeeze gently until both buttercreams come out evenly. Pipe a swirl of buttercreams onto each cupcake, about 2 inches high. Refrigerate at least 25 minutes.
