Peanut Butter Fudge Cupcakes


Katie - this one's for you.


1 box devil's food cake mix

3 eggs

1 cup buttermilk

1/2 cup vegetable oil

2 cups chopped peanut butter cups, plus more to garnish

8 oz. dark chocolate, chopped

1 cup heavy cream

1/2 cup creamy peanut butter


Beat cake mix, eggs, buttermilk and oil on low 30 seconds, then med-high 2 minutes. Fold in 2 cups of the chopped peanut butter cups.


Divide batter between lined muffin cups. Bake at 350 (honestly, I don't remember how long I baked it for...probably for however long the box said for muffins). Cool completely.


Place chopped dark chocolate in a medium bowl. Bring cream just to a boil and pour over chocolate. Whisk until chocolate melts. Add peanut butter and whisk until smooth. Frost cupcakes and garnish with chopped candy.


I'm not a huge peanut butter lover, but I actually really liked this one. I adapted it from Bakerella
