Peanut Butter Jelly Cupcakes
I was enjoying a pb&j for lunch the other day when I decided I wanted these for dessert. I know, I’m crazy but by this craziness, I bring sweets for my sweets {and I’m corny too, didn’t you know}? These are a hybrid peanut butter cupcake-brownie base injected with fresh jam, swirled with a creamy peanut butter buttercream.

So craving these now! I’ve never made pb&j anything other than sandwiches and never wanted to…until now.
Hi Angela, wow… I sure love this, look so delectable and awesome. Wish I can have 2 for my supper.
How about 4? =)
You SO should, they’re great!
I have a question your recipe looks delish and I wanted to try it. Would it mess up the recipe if instead of unbleached flour I used all purpose??? also wanted to do the same in your margarita cupcakes??? Would it be ok?
Hi, Elissa. It won’t mess anything up. It’s just a personal preference. I like using unbleached flour since it hasn’t been chemically bleached. It’s still the same flour =)
