Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees (F). Line (2) 12-cup muffin tins with cupcake liners. Spray lightly with non-stick baking spray, and set aside.
- In a large bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Set aside until needed.
- Combine the oil, butter, and chocolate together in a large bowl. Heat in the microwave, in 30 second increments, stirring between increments each time, until the butter and chocolate are completely melted. Set aside and cool while you assemble the other ingredients.
- In a large bowl, combine both sugars, eggs, egg yolk, and vanilla and beat until smooth and well combined.
- Gradually add in the melted chocolate mixture, adding a little bit at a time and whisking constantly.
- Gently fold in the flour in 3 additions, alternating with the sour cream, beginning and ending with the flour. Mix gently and stop when you can still see the lightest trail of dry ingredients.
- Pour in the hot coffee (or water) and let it sit for 30 seconds, then fold it into the batter until combined.
- Scoop 2 tablespoons of batter into the bottom of each cupcake tin, then press a peanut butter cup into the batter. Top with another 3 tablespoons of batter; each cupcake mold should be 2/3 of the way full.
- Bake, one tray at a time, for 16 to 18 minutes, or until the cupcakes have puffed up and a toothpick (or cake tester) inserted in the middle of a cupcake comes out clean, or with a few moist crumbs attached.
- Allow cupcakes to cool completely before frosting!
- In a large bowl, using a handheld electric mixer, or in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat butter on medium-speed until completely smooth. Beat in the vanilla.
- Reduce mixer speed to low and slowly add in the sugar, adding a 1/2 cup at a time, beating until the sugar has incorporated into the frosting before adding more. Once all of the sugar has been added, beat in the milk.
- Increase mixer speed to medium-high and beat for 3 to 4 minutes, or until the frosting is thick and creamy.
- Finally, fold in the beat butter and beat on medium-high for 1 minute. Use a rubber spatula to scrape down the bottom and sides of the bowl, to ensure all ingredients have been combined.
- Scrape the frosting into a piping bag fitted with an open star piping tip, like this one.
- Finely chop the chocolate and place it in a small heatproof bowl. Set aside.
- Warm the cream over medium heat until it comes to a boil. Add in the peanut butter and whisk smooth.
- Pour the cream over the chopped chocolate and let it sit for 1 minute, then whisk smooth. Whisk in the salt.
- Pipe a swirl of peanut butter frosting on top of each cooled cupcake.
- Using a small spoon, slowly drizzle the milk chocolate peanut butter ganache over the top of each cupcake. Start with a little bit, and add more if desired.
- Decorate the edge of each cupcake with a few chopped peanuts. Then press a peanut butter cup (or two!) in the middle of each cupcake! Enjoy!
- These cupcakes are best eaten the day they are made, but will keep, covered and stored at room temperature, for 2 days.
REESE'S PEANUT BUTTER CUP CAKE
This is a very unique, delicious cake. The cake itself is not peanut butter flavored, but Reese's Cups crumbled on top of the batter before baking add a delicious layer between the cake and chocolate frosting. Enjoy!

THE ULTIMATE CHOCOLATE LAYERED REESES PEANUT BUTTER CUP CAKE
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a stand or electric mixer add the cake mix, eggs, oil, water, sour cream, pudding mix, and chocolate chips. Beat until well combined, about 1 1/2 minutes. It will be thick. Pour evenly into 2 well greased 9 inch cake pans. Bake for 30-35 minutes until toothpick comes out cleanly. Let cool completely. To prepare cream cheese frosting place softened cream cheese and butter in mixing bowl, beat on med-high speed until creamy smooth. Slowly beat in powdered sugar until a good spreading consistency forms. I used almost the entire bag of powdered sugar. Refrigerate for a good hour before frosting. Turn cake onto wax paper with a large serrated knife cut each cake in half width wise to form four layers. Place one layer onto a cake stand and drizzle melted peanut butter over the top. Next spread a generous amount of cream cheese frosting over that. Place another cake layer on top and repeat peanut butter and frosting until top layer is placed. Spread remaining frosting over entire cake then top with halved peanut butter cups. Freeze the cake until serving.
