Peanut Butter & Jelly Cupcake Ingredients:
- 1 box of white cake mix, you can also use butter cake mix
- 2-3 cups of Peanut butter spread; I used Jiffy’s reduced fat
- 3 eggs
- 3-1/2 sticks of unsalted butter (oil substitute)
- ¼ cup sour cream
- 1 tsp of vanilla extract
- 1 cup of milk (water substitute)
- Grape or strawberry jelly
- 1/2 cup chopped peanuts
Directions:
- Cream about ¾ cups of peanut butter with ½ stick of butter
- Just follow the instruction of the cake mix box, but make the substitutions listed above.
- Add to creamed peanut butter - cake mix, eggs, vanilla extract, 1 stick of butter, sour cream, milk
- Fold in chopped peanuts
- Bake according to cake box instructions
After cooled, inject the jelly into each cupcake with a piping tip and voila! Now, it’s ready for icing.
Peanut Butter Icing
Mix about 1-2 cups of peanut butter with 2 cups of confectioning sugar; taste it to make sure it’s not too sweet and make sure it stays at a good consistence for decoration. Not too hard and not too soft.
Well, it turned out delicious and I even had extra for a little cake.
If you like PB&J sandwiches, this is a must. I am sure you will love it!
