Honey Peanut Butter Stuffed Cupcakes
Cupcake Ingredients
- 1/4 cup milk
- 1/4 cup peanut oil (or use any neutral oil)
- 2 Tbsp honey, gently warmed to liquefy
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 75g white sugar
- 110g plain flour
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
Filling Ingredients
- 100g Pic's Honey Peanut Butter
- 75g honey, gently warmed to liquify
- 2 Tbsp milk
Icing Ingredients
- 150g Pic's Honey Peanut Butter
- 100g butter, softened
- 125g icing sugar
- ¼ cup salted peanuts, for garnish
-
Preheat the oven to 180°C standard/160°C fan-forced. Line 6 standard muffin holes with cases.
-
In a large bowl, whisk together the milk, oil, honey, egg and vanilla extract until smooth. Add the sugar and whisk to combine.
-
Add the flour and baking powder, and mix with a spoon only until no lumps remain - don’t overmix.
-
Divide among your prepared muffin cases and bake for 15 minutes, or until golden on top, and a skewer inserted comes out clean.
-
Allow to cool for 5 minutes in the tin, before transferring to a cooling rack to cool completely. Only once cooled completely, use a knife to cut a small circle in the top of each cupcake, removing the centre to form a cavity.
-
To make the filling, whisk together the Pic's Honey Peanut Butter, honey and milk until a thick but pourable consistency.
-
Fill the cavity of each cupcake with the peanut butter and honey mixture.
-
To make the icing, beat the Pic's Honey Peanut Butter and butter using a stand mixer or electric beaters until thick, pale and well combined. Add the icing sugar, about ¼ cup at a time and beating well in between each addition, until thick. Add more icing sugar if it is not thick enough.
-
Pipe or spread the icing on each cupcake. Decorate with salted peanuts and enjoy!
