Peanut Frosting on Chocolate Cupcakes

I workout at the gym across the street from where I work nearly everyday. Some days are tougher than others to hop across the street for a workout, and other days are just plain difficult to make it through the workout. The problem is the Food Network! That's what I watch when I workout and watching delicious food being prepared right before I have eaten lunch is really hard! Today was terrible! I tuned in when chocolate muffins with a peanut frosting were being made. AHHHH! Well, I gave in to temptation and made them tonight. I finished my workout even after the muffin recipe so I think I earned the right to eat a muffin... or two! I used a boxed cake mix tonight, but here's the recipe for the fantastic frosting.

Peanut Butter Frosting

1 cup powdered sugar

1 cup creamy peanut butter

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/3 cup whipping cream

Chopped roasted and unsalted peanuts

In a bowl place the sugar, peanut butter, butter, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix on low-medium speed until mixed. Add the cream and mix on medium-high until thoroughly mixed. Spread on top of chocolate cupcakes. Top with chopped peanuts.
