I found this recipe in Country Woman magazine. I have not tried this recipe, but I'm posting it for safe keeping. I plan to use Pillsbury reduced sugar brownie mix, sugar free chocolate chips, no sugar added peanut butter and Splenda sugar blend.

If you enjoy peanut butter cups you are in for a real sweet treat. I make these on occasions in keeping them special. Very rich and satisfying filling that chocolate craving. Don't count on them lasting too long. Makes 2 dozen. I mix my brownies from scratch but you certainly could use the family size brownie mix.

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 19

1-2/3 c sugar
3/4 c butter (softened)
2 Tbsp water
2 large eggs
2 tsp vanilla
1-1/3 c flour
3/4 c cocoa powder
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
FILLING
1/2 c powdered sugar
1/2 c peanut butter
2 Tbsp butter (softened)
1 tsp vanilla
1/4 tsp salt
TOPPING
1/2 c whipping cream or evaporated milk
1 c semisweet chocolate chips
1 Tbsp peanut butter

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven 350. Line 12 muffin cups with paper liners. BROWNIE BASE: In large bowl mix brownie base ingredients: butter, sugar, and water. Add the eggs and vanilla stirring to combine. Combine dry ingredients and stir additions into the batter until all is combined.
  • 2. Fill your cupcake pan (liners in place) with a rounded Tablespoon of the brownie batter. You want to adjust this amount leaving enough batter to bake 24 cupcakes. Bake 10 minutes.
  • 3. Remove pans from oven and place on wire racks. I use a rounded measuring Tablespoon pressing to create indents in the still warm brownies. Move onto your second batch of 12 paper lined cupcake brownies. Repeat the cooling step and create the rounded indentation in each. Work in a continued pattern and make the filling next.
  • 4. FILLING - Take a small mixing bowl and combine all of the ingredients. Mix by hand adding more powdered sugar if necessary while creating a peanut butter filling that leaves the sides of the bowl. After the brownies are cooled enough to handle take a rounded teaspoon of the filling and place on top of the brownie indentations.
  • 5. TOPPING: I use the canned evaporated milk (not condensed sweetened) placing it in a 1-quart sauce pan. Heating the pan slowly stir in the chocolate chips and peanut butter until combined well. It will remain glossy and begin clotting together resembling pudding without boiling. I use a wooden spoon to stir the topping and then take a spoon full and slowly drip it on top of the peanut butter filling.
  • 6. Refrigerate these bundles of joy about 10-15 minutes and serve whenever. These never last more than 2 days in my house while many are taken home for later snacking by visiting family.

PEANUT BUTTER FILLED CHOCOLATE BROWNIE CUPCAKES



PEANUT BUTTER FILLED CHOCOLATE BROWNIE CUPCAKES image

Categories     Cake     Chocolate     Dessert

Yield 12 cupcakes

Number Of Ingredients 15

Brownies:
3/4 cup all purpose flour
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
3/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 Tablespoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
Peanut Butter Filling:
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
4 Tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
4 Ounces Cream Cheese

Steps:

  • Sift together the flour, cocoa powder and kosher salt. Set aside. In a bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, mix together the brown sugar, sugar, butter and vanilla extract on medium speed for 3 minutes. Add in the eggs, one at a time. Slowly add in the dry ingredients on low speed until almost combined. Then take a spatula and fold everything together. Add in the chocolate chips and fold them in. Line a cupcake pan with cupcake liners. Using an ice cream scoop, scoop the brownie batter into each cupcake liner. Each cupcake should be about 1/2 - 2/3 full. Then take a small spatula or knife and spread the brownie batter so that the tops of the cupcakes are flat. Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes. Cool for 5 minutes in the cupcake pan and then transfer to a cooling rack to cool completely before filling. To make the filling: Sift the powdered sugar. Set aside. In a bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, mix together the peanut butter, butter, and cream cheese on medium speed for about 3 minutes. Slowly add in the powdered sugar. Cool the cupcakes before filling them! Put the filling in a piping bag fitted with a round decorating tip. Take a brownie cupcake and insert the decorating tip into the cupcake, all the way down to the bottom. Squeeze the peanut butter filing into the brownie cupcake. Continue filling all of the cupcakes. Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use high-quality peanut butter for the best flavor. Creamy or chunky peanut butter can be used, depending on your preference.
  • Make sure the peanut butter is at room temperature before using it. This will make it easier to mix and spread.
  • If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a plastic bag with the corner snipped off to fill the cupcake liners with peanut butter.
  • Be careful not to overfill the cupcake liners with batter. The cupcakes will rise during baking and may overflow if they are too full.
  • Bake the cupcakes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking will dry out the cupcakes.
  • Let the cupcakes cool completely before frosting them. This will help the frosting to set properly.

Conclusion:

These peanut butter filled brownie cupcakes are a delicious and decadent treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With their rich chocolate flavor and creamy peanut butter filling, these cupcakes are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
