\"12884500_10153968110333077_501771940_n\"What can possibly be bad about the delicious combination of chocolate, peanut butter and bananas?! Yup, nothing at all! So today I went a little cuckoo for that particular combination and came up with not one but two<\/em> fabulous new recipes! But I was also feeling lazy and not in the mood to do a lot of measuring or mess with fancy flours (which I have definitely been known to do!) so for these two recipes I went straight for my tried and true King Arthur GF baking mixes, available at most supermarkets. If you want to check out my Peanut Butter Banana Bread with Chocolate Chips<\/a> that recipe can be found here. And if you are still craving even more fabulous recipe ideas, check out my Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana Cream Pie<\/a>!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Ingredients<\/span><\/h4>\n

Cupcakes<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  • \u00a01 box King Arthur Flour gluten-free chocolate cake mix<\/li>\n
  • 2 super ripe bananas (ideally frozen and defrosted)<\/li>\n
  • 4 large organic eggs<\/li>\n
  • 1\/3 C vegetable or peanut oil<\/li>\n
  • 1 C buttermilk (use your favorite unsweetened nut, seed or rice milk for dairy free)<\/li>\n
  • 2\/3 peanut butter (I used all-natural crunchy but you can use whatever you have on hand, creamy or crunchy)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    \"12498947_10153968110273077_1020652533_n\"Frosting<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

      \n
    • 1 C (2 sticks) organic unsalted butter, at room temperature (use margarine sticks for dairy-free)<\/li>\n
    • 2 C smooth peanut butter<\/li>\n
    • 2 C confectioners\u2019 sugar<\/li>\n
    • 1 tsp flake salt<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Instructions<\/span><\/h4>\n
        \n
      1. Preheat oven to 350\u00b0<\/li>\n
      2. Whisk together eggs, bananas, buttermilk and oil<\/li>\n
      3. Add cake mix and blend until smooth<\/li>\n
      4. Pour into 18-24 greased or paper-lined cupcake tins<\/li>\n
      5. Bake for 18-24 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean (longer baking times if you fill the tins more full)<\/li>\n
      6. While the cupcakes bake, combine butter, sugar, peanut butter and salt in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, electric beaters or a whisk and some serious elbow grease and beat until light and fluffy<\/li>\n
      7. Cool cupcakes on a wire rack<\/li>\n
      8. When completely cool, frost and cool in the fridge until ready to eat<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Enjoy!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
