Honestly, I slightly underestimated the cake that contained peanut butter. One day, I tried a cupcake. After I ate the cupcake, I just now know, the cake has a peanut butter flavor. The cake texture is moist and combined with peanut butter add more taste to the cake.
So, this time I am going to duplicate that cupcake. Keeping in mind the taste and the texture of that cake, I tried to create the recipe. I need more trying to create it. Finally, I can make perfect peanut butter cupcakes. Fluffy cake, creamy frosting, and yummy!
I use plain peanut butter for cake batter mixture and frosting cream. Then I add some chocolate chips inside. Also, I add peanut chunk and chocolate sprinkles on top of frosting cream.
Wow, Yum! The kids will love this cake. This recipe is too easy. Let’s make it! Bring your kids or your friends to decorate the cupcakes together. It will be so fun.
