Again being home bound I used what I had in my kitchen when I made the frosting. All I had on hand was crunchy peanut butter so I used that instead. I had to spread the cupcakes with a knife instead of using a piping bag but it tasted just as good.
If you use creamy peanut butter in your recipe you can use a pastry bag and tip and it makes a beautiful topping. Here is how I have done it before.
This time I used a muffin pan instead of a regular sized cupcake pan. I do this often times so I can share it with my husband.
Enjoy,
P.S. These are great for Birthday’s or as mini cupcakes for tea parties.
