Ultimate Chocolate Peanut Butter Cupcakes Recipe

Ingredients

For the Chocolate Cupcakes:

3 tablespoons coconut OR canola oil

1 stick unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled

1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

3/4 cup + 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, not packed

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon baking powder

2 large eggs + 1 large egg yolk, at room temperature

1 cup granulated sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla

1/2 cup full fat sour cream

1/2 cup hot coffee OR hot water

18 peanut butter cups (I used the full-sized ones, but think the minis would work, too)

For the Peanut Butter Frosting:

1 and 1/2 cups creamy peanut butter

1 cup (2 stick) unsalted butter, very soft

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

3 cups confectioners' sugar

1/4 teaspoon salt

3-4 tablespoons heavy cream

9 peanut butter cups, cut in half (I used the full-sized ones, but again, minis could work)
