Peanut Butter and Co. makes the best peanut butter mix-up concoctions. I thought this would make a GREAT take on my regular peanut butter frosting (recipe, here) without even having to add chocolate – since it was already in there! This – this is what dreams are made of.

ingredients:
1/2 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup chocolate peanut butter
2 cups powdered sugar
2-1/2 tablespoons heavy cream

In the bowl of an electric mixer, cream the butter and chocolate peanut butter. Carefully add in the powdered sugar – p.s. don’t wear a black shirt when you do this, ugh – just trust me.

Add in the heavy cream – once incorporated whip into a frenzy. I like level ’6′ if your kitchenaid can handle it. The chocolate will turn a lightish brown color. Once it gets nice and fluffy you are good to go.

I used this to frost a bunch of banana cupcakes, and it went together swell. Topped off with a little Godiva white chocolate pearl and you have some pretty sweet little cupcakes.
