Peanut Butter Cup Cupcakes
I first made these cupcakes years ago, and if you’re a peanut butter fan, you really need to try these! I adapted this recipe from Hoosier Homemade. I made my icing a little thicker than Liz’s recipe so I could just scoop it on the cupcakes. Are these ever good! They are very rich, oozing…
