Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 3 large egg whites
  • 1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
  • 5 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 6 tbsp heavy whipping cream
  • 3/4 cup crushed candy bars (like Butterfingers)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a cupcake pan with liners.
  2. In a mixing bowl, cream together the unsalted butter, sugar, brown sugar, and creamy peanut butter until fluffy. Mix in the egg whites one by one.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour and salt. Gradually combine this dry mixture with the wet ingredients.
  4. Fill each cupcake liner two-thirds full with batter and bake for about 20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  5. For the ganache, heat heavy whipping cream until it simmers, then pour over semi-sweet chocolate chips; stir until smooth.
  6. Once cupcakes are cooled, frost them generously with peanut butter frosting and drizzle ganache on top.
