Number Of Ingredients 15

1 1/4 cups Betty Crocker™ All-Purpose Gluten Free Rice Flour Blend
1 1/2 teaspoons gluten-free baking powder
1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum
1/4 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup butter, softened
1/3 cup creamy peanut butter
1 teaspoon gluten-free vanilla
2 eggs
1/2 cup milk
3 tablespoons butter, softened
1 1/2 oz unsweetened baking chocolate, melted and cooled
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon gluten-free vanilla
1 to 2 tablespoons milk

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°F for shiny aluminum pan, 325°F for dark nonstick pan. Place paper baking cup in each of 12 regular-size muffin cups, or grease cups with shortening or cooking spray.
  • In medium bowl, stir together flour blend, baking powder, xanthan gum and salt; set aside.
  • In large bowl, beat granulated sugar, 1/3 cup softened butter, peanut butter and 1 teaspoon vanilla on medium speed about 3 minutes or until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating on medium speed 1 minute after each addition. On low speed, beat in dry ingredient mixture alternately with 1/2 cup milk, beginning and ending with dry mixture. Divide batter evenly among muffin cups. Smooth tops of batter in cups with wet fingers.
  • Bake 20 to 24 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center of cupcake comes out clean. Cool 5 minutes in pan; remove from pan to cooling rack. Cool completely before frosting, about 30 minutes.
  • To make Chocolate Frosting, in medium bowl, beat 3 tablespoons softened butter and chocolate until blended. Add powdered sugar, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla and enough milk until smooth and spreadable.
