Peanut Butter Cupcakes

Everyone loves a good cupcake and these peanut butter cupcakes are very good indeed. A fun alternative to a large cake and perfect for serving at birthday parties, once baked we suggest spreading the individual cakes with swirls of Goody Natural Peanut Butter instead of frosting and then going extreme with the toppings, think popcorn, pretzel hearts, berries and chocolate wafers.
