Wickedly Peanut Butter

Sinfully Peanut buttery! That's all that came into my mind when i had my first bite. Its like falling in love all over again with peanut butter! Being an avid peanut butter fan i can't help but evilly indulge in it.

Peanut Butter Muffins

Ingredients:

* 2 cups all-purpose flour
* 1 tbsp baking powder
* 2 cups full cream evaporated milk
* 1/3 cup low fat milk
* 1/2 cup soft brown sugar
* 1/2 cup + 2 tbsps creamy peanut butter
* 1 tsp salt

Method:
1) Preheat oven to 204 degrees C.
2) Line the muffin tray with muffin cups.
3) Shift flour and baking powder in a bowl.
4) Place milk, eggs, sugar, peanut butter and salt in the blender and blend.
5) Pour the mixture over dry ingredients and fold until just combined.

Note:
I made some changes to the original recipe. The actual recipe only calls for 1 cup of milk but i substituted it with 2 cups of full cream evaporated milk and i added an extra 1/3 of low fat milk and 2 tbsps of peanut butter.

For those who love it to be on a sweeter note and more peanut buttery, feel free to add more creamy peanut butter and soft brown sugar. My version of peanut butter isnt too sweet, in fact i cut down on the sweetness so that the combination of the muffins and the frosting would be just nice and not too overly overwhelming.

Peanut Butter Frosting

Ingredients:

* 2 tbsps + 3/4 tsp milk or as needed
* 1 1/2 cups confectioner's sugar
* 1/4 cup + 2tbsps butter
* 3/4 creamy peanut butter

Method:
1) Place butter and peanut butter in a bowl and beat it with an electric mixer.
2) Gradually mix in sugar and when it thickens, add in milk a teaspoon at a time until the sugar is mixed and the icing is thick and spreadable.
3) Beat until its fluffy.

Note:
Don't add too much milk for the frosting would be too soft to make a nice frosting on cakes/cookies.

So there you have it, the muffins and the frosting! So what are you waiting for? Get your piping set out and start experimenting with it. This is my first time playing with my new toy and i gotta say i was really excited frosting my own muffins.

Come to think bout it, it looks more like cupcakes now! My frosting skills isnt that great and it didn't turn out very pretty there but i'm jolly happy with the outcome as a first timer on my piping set!
