Peanut Butter Cookie Cupcakes Recipes

Steps:

• In a bowl, cream the shortening, peanut butter and brown sugar. Beat in eggs and vanilla. Combine the flour, baking powder and salt; add to creamed mixture alternately with milk., Fill paper-lined muffin cups with 1/4 cup of batter. Press a peanut butter cup into the center of each until top edge is even with batter. Bake at 350° for 22-24 minutes or until a toothpick inserted on an angle toward the center of the cupcakes comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks to cool completely.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a cupcake pan with paper liners, or grease and flour cups.
• In a large bowl, mix together the brown sugar, shortening and peanut butter until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla. Combine the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda and salt; stir into the batter alternately with the milk. Spoon into the prepared muffin cups.
• Bake for 15 to 20 minutes in the preheated oven, until the top of the cupcakes spring back when lightly pressed. Cool in the pan for at least 10 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line 3 standard 12-cup muffin tins with paper liners.
• Make the cupcakes: Whisk flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda in a medium bowl. Put butter and sugar into the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment; mix on medium speed until pale and fluffy. Reduce speed to low. Mix in peanut butter. Mix in eggs, 1 at a time, and vanilla. Add flour mixture; mix until combined. Mix in sour cream.
• Spoon scant 3 tablespoons batter into each muffin cup. Bake until pale golden and a cake tester inserted into centers comes out clean, about 13 minutes. Transfer to wire racks; let cool completely.
• Make the frosting: Put cream cheese, confectioners' sugar, and butter into the clean bowl of a mixer fitted with the clean paddle attachment; mix on medium- high speed until pale and fluffy. Stir in peanut butter with a rubber spatula.
• Spread 1 1/2 tablespoons frosting onto each cupcake. Refrigerate until frosting is firm, about 10 minutes. Using tines of a fork dipped in confectioners' sugar, score each top in a crosshatch pattern.

Steps:

• Make the cupcakes: Position a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F using the convection setting, if available. Line a 24-cup mini muffin pan with paper liners. Combine the butter, cocoa powder and 1/4 cup water in a microwave-safe bowl, cover with plastic wrap and microwave until the butter melts, about 2 minutes. Whisk to combine, then whisk in the brown sugar.
• Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Whisk in the warm cocoa mixture. In another bowl, whisk the buttermilk, egg and vanilla; stir into the batter until just combined but don't overmix.
• Divide the batter among the prepared cups, filling each three-quarters of the way. Bake until the cupcakes spring back when touched, about 20 minutes. Let cool in the pan 5 minutes, then transfer to a rack to cool completely.
• Make the topping: Bring the cream to a simmer in a small saucepan, then pour over the peanut butter chips in a bowl and let stand until the chips melt, about 5 minutes. Whisk until smooth. Refrigerate until the topping is set, about 10 minutes, then beat with a mixer until fluffy. Transfer to a pastry bag with a 1-inch round tip and pipe peaks onto each cupcake. Place in the freezer while you make the glaze.
• Make the glaze: Put the butter, chocolate and 3 tablespoons hot water in a small, deep microwave-safe bowl, cover with plastic wrap and microwave on 50 percent power until the chocolate melts, about 2 minutes. Whisk until smooth. Dip the frozen peaks of each cupcake into the glaze, letting the excess drip off. Refrigerate until set, about 5 minutes.

Steps:

• For the cookie cake: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream together the butter, peanut butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar, about 1 minute. Add the egg, vanilla, milk, baking soda, and salt, and mix until combined. Slowly add the flour, and mix until the dough just comes together, scraping the sides of the bowl as necessary. Stir in the M&Ms or chocolate chips.
• Spray a 9- or 10-inch round cake pan with cooking spray, or line with foil and spray with cooking spray for easy removal and cleanup. Press the dough into the pan. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. When the dough is cold, bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the top is golden brown. Let cool completely before frosting.
• For the frosting: Using an electric hand mixer or a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the butter until smooth. Slowly mix in the powdered sugar and cocoa powder. Mix in the salt, vanilla, and 2 teaspoons of the milk. Add the remaining 2 or 3 teaspoons milk as needed to reach the desired consistency.
• Place the frosting in a pastry bag fitted with a 1M tip, and frost the outer ring of the cake. Dust with sprinkles if using.

Steps:

• Cream butter, peanut butter, and sugars together in a bowl; beat in eggs.
• In a separate bowl, sift flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt; stir into butter mixture. Put dough in refrigerator for 1 hour.
• Roll dough into 1 inch balls and put on baking sheets. Flatten each ball with a fork, making a crisscross pattern. Bake in a preheated 375 degrees F oven for about 10 minutes or until cookies begin to brown.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350f (180c) degrees and line a 12 muffin cup baker with paper liners.
• Prepare brownie mix according to package directions. For each cupcake cup spread 1/2 teaspoon of peanut butter over each Oreo cookie and stack them on top of each other. Place oreo stacks into the cupcake lined muffin cups. Spoon 2 tablespoons of brownie batter over each stacked oreos and let it run down the sides of the cookies. If you have left over brownie batter, bake separately in a separate baker or muffin tin. Bake cookies and brownies for 18 to 20 minutes, until brownies are cooked through. Let cool completely then serve.
• Makes 12 servings.

Steps:

• VANILLA CUPCAKES:
• Follow the directions on the box.
• Let cool in fridge while making the peanut butter filling.
• PEANUT BUTTER FILLING:.
• In a large bowl, combine the peanut butter, the softened butter, and the vanilla.
• Mix on medium (if you don't have a mixer, just go ahead and use a fork, not spoon!) until smooth.
• Slowly beat in the powdered sugar while mixing.
• Using a wooden spoon, scrape in any of the pwodered sugar that remained on side of bowl.
• The mix may not be fully mixed together, so stick your hands in it and knead the mix until very smooth and doughy.
• NOTE: If the mix is still a little too sticky, or isn't doughy enough to roll out, gradually add in a little bit of powdered sugar while kneading with hands.
• FROSTING FOR CUPCAKES:
• No need to tell you how to make the frosting if you did buy the kind in the plastic container! But I will tell you that if you use a wilton metal frosting spatula, it makes your frosting skills look a lot better, and it's more fun!
• HOW TO FILL THE CUPCAKES:.
• Cut the top off of the cupcake and set aside.
• Roll out about one fourth of the peanut butter mix.
• Take the top of the cupcake and place on top of any area on the rolled out peanut butter dough.
• Take a knife, and trace the amount of filling you will need to fit the top of that cupcake.
• Cut it out, and place on top of cut cupcake.
• Then place the cupcake top back on cupcake.
• Frost, if desired.

Steps:

• Combine cake mix, peanut butter, peanut butter cups, oil, and eggs in a mixing bowl.
• Using an ice cream scoop or your hand, form golf ball-sized balls of cookie dough and transfer to a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.

• Divide buttercream in half. Stir peanut butter and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt into one half, and place in a pastry bag with no tip. Stir remaining 1 teaspoon vanilla into other half, and place in another pastry bag with no tip. Fit a third pastry bag with a large round tip, about 1/2-inch diameter. Snip ends off both bags of buttercream; insert them in pastry bag with tip. Squeeze gently until both buttercreams come out evenly. Pipe a swirl of buttercreams onto each cupcake, about 2 inches high. Refrigerate at least 25 minutes.
