Wait, WHAT? Healthy chocolate cupcakes… with a healthy peanut butter filling… and a healthy chocolate peanut butter frosting?
That’s like a Reese’s peanut butter cup turned into a cupcake!
And it is, because Reese’s were the inspiration. But there is something very different about my cupcakes and Reese’s, and the difference is that my cupcakes are (secretly) good for you and Reese’s peanut butter cups are (obviously) bad for you.
These are the perfect treats to have on hand — they are suitable for breakfast, brunch, lunch, second lunch, dessert and anything that can possibly fit in between that. That’s how healthy these cupcakes are. I recall having a couple of these babies for breakfast… two days in a row… 😉
Healthy Reese’s Cupcakes [Chocolate Cupcakes with Peanut Butter Filling and Chocolate Peanut Butter Frosting]
-
Prepare the cupcakes and let cool completely.
-
In a large bowl, whisk together the peanut flour and sweetener. Whisk in the milk.
-
Scoop about a quarter of this mixture into a piping bag and fill the cupcakes with it.
-
Whisk the cocoa powder into the remaining filling. Scoop into a piping bag and frost the cupcakes.
Slice. Chomp. Yum.
Enjoy!
