Peanut Butter Cupcakes

We are celebrating a friends birthday tomorrow night, so I thought I would make her some cupcakes for her birthday. I found a recipe that looked good, and then I added my own twist to it. These are the first cupcakes that I have made from scratch. Inside of the cupcake is a Reese's in the middle of it.

I had never made these before so I was wondering how the Reese's would look once they were baked. They turned out a lot better than I thought they would.

They kind of remind me of the sugar cookies that I make at Christmas time with a Kiss on the top. Just by the way they look. Instead of just using a plain vanilla or chocolate for the frosting, I wanted to add a bit of twist to it. So I added a 1/2 cup of peanut butter to the chocolate frosting. It tastes really good.
