PEANUT BUTTER CUPCAKES WITH PEANUT BUTTER FROSTING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350F degrees.

• Beat (or whisk) in the peanut butter, ensuring that there are no lumps of brown sugar.
• In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda and salt.
• In a liquid measuring cup, gently whisk together the sour cream and milk with a fork.
• Carefully whisk about 1/2 of the flour mixture into the peanut butter mixture, followed by about 1/2 of the sour cream and milk mixture. Repeat the process until everything is mixed together. Its important to do this step by hand to avoid over mixing the batter.
• Spoon into the prepared cupcake liners filling each about 2/3 to 3/4 full. You should end up with about 16 cupcakes total. If you only make 12 cupakes, then you've filled the liners too full.
