Instructions
- Chocolate Cupcake:
- Line the cupcake pan with paper liners. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Mix the dry ingredients, flour through salt, in a bowl.
- In a separate bowl whisk together eggs, milk, oil and vanilla.
- Add the liquid mixture to the dry ingredients. Beat for 3 minutes with an electric mixer on medium speed.
- Slowly add the boiling water to the batter. The batter may appear a bit on the runny side.
- Fill the cupcake liners 3/4 full.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes.
- Remove from oven and cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Remove cupcakes to wire rack and cool completely before frosting.
- Peanut Butter Frosting:
- Cream the butter, peanut butter and powder sugar until it becomes light and creamy. If it is too thick, add a few drops of the heavy whipping cream until it is the desired consistency. If the frosting is too thin, add more powdered sugar.
- Use a pastry bag with a large tip to pipe the frosting on the cupcake. You can make this as simple or fancy as you like. Enjoy!
Notes
- There is enough frosting to frost 24 cupcakes. However, if you want to pipe them like we did in the pictures, you will want to double the frosting amounts.
