It’s officially August and that means soon school will be back in session! Thankfully in NY we still have a month before we have to swap our suncreen and flip flops for books and pencils…but I know many of you are starting as early as next week! Which makes the perfect time to bring back my PB & J cupcakes to the blog!

So while you’re getting ready to whip up those PB&J’s assembly line style…why not treat them with a PB&J cupcake as the perfect after school snack! These cupcakes have a fluffy white cake filled with yummy jelly and topped with a smooth peanut butter icing.

1 Cup Water
1/3 Cup Mayo
Grape Or Strawberry Jelly To Fill

Peanut Butter Buttercream
2 Cups Peanut Butter

Makes approx. 24 cupcakes.

Step 1: Preheat oven to 350. Mix together cake mix, mayo, water, and egg whites.

Step 2: Spoon 3 TBS of cake batter into each cupcake liner. Bake at 350 for 16-18 minutes. Allow to cool.

Step 3: After the cupcakes have cooled, core the cupcakes. I find this is really easy to do using a large round icing tip.

Step 4: Fill the cupcakes with jelly using a piping bag and a medium/large round tip. Insert the tip deep down into the cupcake and fill each to the top.

Step 5: To make the icing, beat together butter and peanut butter in the bowl of an electric mixer. Slowly add in powdered sugar. Mix in milk 1-3 TBS at a time until you reach desired consistency. (I only used 1 this will depend on the thickness of your peanut butter.

Step 6: Ice cupcakes and enjoy!

  1. Maria in NJ ~ Dolcelicious Bake Shoppe says:

    Toni in your photo description you say to mix the cake mix with sour cream and mayo, but in the recipe there is no mention of sour cream…just wanted to let you know in case there is an error…m

  2. So, does the recipe include both mayo and sour cream? Sour cream isn’t on the ingredient list but is included in the directions.

  3. Omg!!! delicious. Per the comments I did not add sour cream that was an error in the actual written directions not ingredients.only thing I did different wich it does state in the ingredients is 1-3 Tablspoons of milk I used moore (it could have been the the peanut butter I. Used). I actually got phone calls days later about how good these were
