Chocolate Cup/Cakes With Fluffy Peanut Butter Marshmallow Frosti image

This is a wonderful recipe that was given to me by a friend years ago. The cake and frosting are easy to put together in less than an hour. The cake is moist and chocolatey and the frosting complements it well with a light peanut butter flavor.

Time 40m

Yield 24 cup cakes, 18-24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 (18 1/4 ounce) package devil's food cake mix (any chocolate cake mix will do)
1 (6 ounce) package instant chocolate pudding mix (I use sugar free)
1 cup sour cream (low fat is fine)
1 cup unsweetened applesauce
1 tablespoon vegetable oil or 1 tablespoon canola oil
4 eggs
1/4 cup coffee, if you don't have coffee add water instead (instant or brewed)
1/4 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla (optional)
1/2-1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (I like mini and it's optional)
1 (7 ounce) jar marshmallow creme (1 cup)
1/2-3/4 cup peanut butter (use more if you want more peanut butter taste)
1/3 cup butter or 1/3 cup margarine, softened
1/2-1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
1 -2 tablespoon milk

Steps:

  • Cake:Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • In a large bowl, mix together the cake and pudding mixes, sour cream, applesauce, oil, eggs, coffee/water, milk, and vanilla. Stir in the chocolate chips.
  • Fill pan: 2 round cake pans, 1 bunt pan, or 24 cup cakes. **For cup cakes, spray or use liners and fill each with one level ice cream scoop, it makes the perfect amount.
  • Bake for 50 to 55 minutes for cake or 20-25 min for cupcakes. It is done when the top is springy to the touch and a wooden toothpick inserted comes out clean, test twice because you might have hit a chocolate chip the first time. Cool cake thoroughly in pan at least an hour and a half before inverting onto a plate and frosting.
  • Frosting:In small bowl with mixer at low speed (or by hand), combine marshmallow creme, peanut butter, butter, and vanilla until blended.
  • Increase speed to medium (or keep mixing by hand) and add confectioners' sugar and milk, adding just enough milk to make frosting smooth and spreadable.
