Yet another delicious recipe that I found floating around in Facebook universe.  They are basically yummy vanilla cupcakes with chocolate chips and then M&M peanut butter cookie dough scooped on top.  Yah, can't go wrong, and I have already had rave reviews.  These are delicious and I very full or sugar so should probably be a special treat, but totally worth it!


Ingredients

Cupcakes

1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1 cup sugar
2 whole eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups flour
1 1/4 baking powder
1/3 cup milk
1 cup chocolate chips of your choice

1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1-2 cup powdered sugar
3 tbsp brown sugar
3 tbsp flour
1tsp vanilla

3/4 bag mini M&Ms
3/4 cup chocolate chips

-Use stand or hand mixer to beat together all cupcake ingredients except chocolate chips.
-Stir in the chocolate chips.
-Fill cupcake liners 2/3 full of batter.

-In the meantime, use a mixer to beat together cream cheese, butter and peanut butter for cookie dough topping until smooth.

-Mix in powdered sugar 1 cup at a time (I ended up using about 1 and 3/4 cup).

-Enjoy!
