Today's post is meant for all the Reese's Peanut Buttercup fans; and if I say so myself, I am one crazy peanut butter and chocolate lover. I love it not only on a slice of bread, even if I had to choose an ice-cream flavour to indulge in, PB and Chocolate is my No.1 go to sin. Yummm.. yummm.
Over the weekend, my family was treated to my very own favourite flavour pairings. Peanut Butter and Chocolate. I just love the rich creamy taste of peanut butter, and when nobody's watching, I would just eat it as it is with a spoon licking it sparkly clean. Delish!!

If the name still haven't manage to tempt you, maybe this might. The dark rich moist chocolate cupcake has a layer of salty-sweet creamy peanut butter fluffy frosting slathered all over. On the inside, there is a peek-a-boo moment, let's just say more peanut butter? Yup, that's right each cupcake had 2 mini Reese's peanut buttercups submerged into the batter, baked to perfection. Sweet cream peanut butter on the outside, paired with slightly salty peanut butter from Reese's buttercup on the inside is simply heaven.

Reeses and chocolate in one cupcake! I want to eat these right now!!
ReplyDeleteLOL.. If only I could send some PB and Choco"love" to you virtually.. ;P
DeleteYou've managed to tempt me, lol. I've been a bit wore out myself. Sorry you missed saying good-bye to Visda, we will miss her and we miss you too. I'm moving in a couple of weeks and hope after that my schedule should ease up. Maybe baking some of these yummy cupcakes would give me a boost. Hope you have a wonderful week and don't work too hard.

Oh my Gina! I hope you are able to get as much rest possible. Perhaps after when you move and all things are sorted? Where are you moving to? Congratulations on moving to a new place too. You take care now and have a wonderful week and months ahead in your new home. xoxo

Thanks Sandra!! At least I know there are a whole lot ppl out there who are as crazy as I am over PB and Chocolate. Can never get enough of them.. Have a good week ahead!
DeleteSubmerged Reese cups, now that is my kind of cupcake! Nothing is better than pb and chocolate-so these cupcakes do fall into the must try category! I like how you decorated these with the little Reese candy on top. This recipe should have a note to save back a few for yourself before serving-no doubt they would disappear quickly. Enjoy the day!

ReplyDeleteI must have accidentally click on something, as I am sure I don't recall removing your remarks:
DeleteI agree with Ping...you came back with a bang, as you always do, Jo!
You disappear for a week or two, come back with a fabulous dessert, and BANG...you're on Top 9!
Not that I'm complaining, I try to comment back to all the bloggers that comment on my blog, plus I do a lot of buzzing on foodbuzz...to date: the latest buzz on my banana bread is 97 buzz...not even making it as a #9 spot on Top 9!
Maybe I will do some "shmoozing" with the foodbuzz crew!
Your Reese's cupcakes are totally yummy...love the pretty decorations; I can only allow myself to have one bite...sinfully outragously delicious:DDD
Hugs,
My reply:
Hi Elisabeth! Not sure where your comment went as I am sure I didn't remove it. Thanks for the sweet support! Hope you're doing well and will be buzzing you real soon over at your side. Huggss, Jo
Chin up and power through, darling! Blogging is all fun and great, but life come's first and when you feel like you need the R&R on the weekend, you probably really do. ;)
ReplyDeleteBesides we can always be sure that the waiting will be worth it! ;)
XOXO,
Tobias
Hi Jo! The cupcakes look really cute, and I always like how you take pictures. You are so details - amazing! Congrats on top 9!!!
ReplyDeleteI hope things turn around for you and that your work changes when spring rolls around. In the meantime, these cupcakes are sure to put a smile on anyones face! I love a chocolate peanut butter combo! :D
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pipping on these cupcakes. I think it may be good we don't live near each other because I would always help you clean out your baking. Reese's is Oz favorite candy so maybe when I feel nice I'll make these for him. Hehe.
ReplyDeleteDarling cup cakes. Peanut butter cupcakes are so adorable..I love the way you layout the cupcakes! so kawaiii!!!
ReplyDeleteHI everyone! THANKS heaps for leaving me with all the remarks. I went through every single one of them, and am super thrilled to know that a so many of you are PB and Choco fan like myself. This cuppie really sure can put a smile on one's face and I hope you continue to spread the love of baking around too. Have a good week ahead and take care now!!! xoxo
ReplyDeleteOh double wowza! This sounds like one heck of a cupcake - gonna have to try it next time I get a sweet craving (which will probably be in like 10 seconds!)
