Of Peanut butter and Chocolate
18 Aug
I’ve always been a great fan of the peanutbutter-chocolate couple but I was getting a bit tired with the usual Chocolate cupcake with PB frosting that I’ve made oh-so-many times. And the last time I tried making Peanut Butter cupcakes, mine turned out soggy and too sweet.
I thought, well..maybe it’s time I revisit the Peanut Butter Cupcake land and give it another shot. And I did.
And I’m glad I did, because it is heaven on the palms of my hand 
Ingredients:
makes 8-10 mini cupcakes
40g soft butter
20g creamy PB
70g flour
20g corn flour
50g sugar
1 egg
2 tbsp cream/milk
1/2 tsp baking powder
a pinch of salt
Directions:
- Preheat oven to 170 degrees.
- Mix everything in a bowl and using your mixer, mix it at high for about 1 – 1 1/2 minutes.
- Divide batter and dunk in a chunck of fresh banana. Bake for 20 minutes.
- Leave cupcakes to cool and the slather some chocolate ganache (or you can even use Hershey’s Syrup) and sprinkle some ground peanuts on top.
I also had one banana left from last night’s dessert so I just cut them up and dump them in each cupcake. The outcome: nice soft gooey banana in a really moist PB cupcake.
I think I will definitely make these again. They’re simple, not too Peanut Butter-ish and are really, really, really GOOD!
Yes. I DO love Peanut Butter and Chocolate everyone..anybody care to join me?
