PEANUT BUTTER CUPCAKES WITH PEANUT BUTTER FROSTING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350F degrees.
• Line 2 muffin tins with muffin papers (you'll end up with about 16-18 cupcakes total).
• In a large bowl beat together the oil, sugar, eggs, and vanilla. Or whisk by hand
• Beat (or whisk) in the peanut butter, ensuring that there are no lumps of brown sugar.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt.
• In a liquid measuring cup, gently whisk together the sour cream and milk with a fork.
• Carefully whisk about 1/2 of the flour mixture into the peanut butter mixture, followed by about 1/2 of the sour cream and milk mixture. Repeat the process until everything is mixed together. Its important to do this step by hand to avoid over mixing the batter.
• Spoon into the prepared cupcake liners filling each about 2/3 to 3/4 full. You should end up with about 16 cupcakes total. If you only make 12 cupakes, then you've filled the liners too full.
• Bake for 20-24 minutes, or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean.
• In a large bowl beat the butter until fluffy.
• Then beat in the peanut butter until smooth.
• Add in the vanilla extract and 2 cups powdered sugar. Beat together on low speed until combined.
• Beat in the rest of the powdered sugar about 1/2 cup at a time, alternating with 1 tablespoon of cream until the desired sweetness and consistency is reached.
• Frost with a knife or piping bag (I used a piping bag and 1M tip) and decorate with peanut butter candies.

• 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.

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.
