Done: Chocolate cupcakes with PeanutButter Frosting

It's been a crazy couple of weeks, and I really haven't had the time or the energy OR the material to even write about.

But, yesterday, I woke up earlier than my usual morning time on Sunday. So, I decided to bake some cupcakes since I haven't in a while. And my boyfriend's sisters have been asking for them for a while.

And I got a new camera! yay.




I don't really have a recipe for this.

Chocolate cake is the only cake that I prefer cake mix.
It's so easy and the cake mixes tend to be really good.
Not too sticky or too sweet.
I try to get the dark chocolate ones since they are obviously less sweet.

As for the frosting, I never buy the pre made frosting from the market.
They are just gross to me.

I usually don't use recipe for the frosting.
For this particular cupcakes, I just eyeballed everything.

1 + 1/2 stick of unsalted butter that I melted in the microwave for 10 seconds.
Then, I hand-whip it to make fluffy.

6 spoonful of peanut butter (creamy organic peanut butter)
I just went by the taste of it. I added more when I thought the frosting could be more peanut-y.
Then, I just hand-whipped it some more until the whole thing was one color.

When it comes to powdered sugar, I also just eyeball it.
I just add some until it's not so buttery.
I try to make it not so sickeningly sweet.

And that's it!

Done: Peace Cupcakes with Brown Sugar Cream Cheese Frosting

I found a recipe a longggggg time ago that I've bookmarked and forgotten about and just found!

Since it is summer, peace seemed like the perfect fruit to make into delicious cupcakes.

This is the LINK to the recipe, if you are interested.







The cupcakes turned out amazing!
Dana helped me with them and took some home for her bro's bday. (:

I haven't baked cupcakes in a while, so it was fun and rather impromptu.

Yummy,
