Peanut Butter Nutella Cupcakes

Sooo these are officially my most favorite cupcakes ever!!! They are super easy and super yummy. I have made them many times and I haven't had anyone dislike them yet!!

Sadly I don't have a picture of them:( I think I accidentally deleted them off of my camera. But I promise that they are delicious!!

Cupcakes:
1 1/2 C. brown sugar
1/2   C. canola oil
1 1/2 C. peanut butter
2 eggs
1 1/2 C. milk
2 t. vanilla extract
2 1/2 C. all purpose flour
1 t. baking soda
2 t. cream of tartar
1 pinch of salt
1 jar nutella

Icing
1 pkg cream cheese, room temperature
1/2 C. unsalted butter, room temperature
1/2 C smooth peanut butter
3 C. powdered sugar
1 t. vanilla extract.

Preheat the oven to 350.
Line a cupcake pan with paper liners. In a large bowl, mix together the brown sugar, oil, and peanut butter until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then add vanilla.

Combine the flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, and salt. Stir the dry mixture into the batter alternately with the milk. Spoon unto the prepared muffin cups.

Bake for 15 to 20 minutes in the preheated oven, until the top of the cupcakes spring back  when lightly pressed. Cool in the pan for at least 10 minutes before removing them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Once cooled, take a knife and cut out a hole in the center of the cupcake. Using a zip-lock or piping bag carefully fill hole with nutella. Put the lid back on cupcake.

To prepare the icing, Beat the cream cheese, butter, and peanut butter until well blended. Add the vanilla, and powdered sugar. Beat until creamy!! Frost your cupcakes and I promise you wont be able to stay away from them!!!
