Ingredients

1 1/4 cups Betty Crocker™ All-Purpose Gluten Free Rice Flour Blend
1 1/2 teaspoons gluten-free baking powder
1/2 teaspoon xanthan gum
1/4 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup granulated sugar
1/3 cup butter, softened
1/3 cup creamy peanut butter
1 teaspoon gluten-free vanilla
2 eggs
1/2 cup milk
3 tablespoons butter, softened
1 1/2 oz unsweetened baking chocolate, melted and cooled
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon gluten-free vanilla
1 to 2 tablespoons milk

Steps:

Heat oven to 350°F for shiny aluminum pan, 325°F for dark nonstick pan. Place paper baking cup in each of 12 regular-size muffin cups, or grease cups with shortening or cooking spray.
In medium bowl, stir together flour blend, baking powder, xanthan gum and salt; set aside.
In large bowl, beat granulated sugar, 1/3 cup softened butter, peanut butter and 1 teaspoon vanilla on medium speed about 3 minutes or until light and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating on medium speed 1 minute after each addition. On low speed, beat in dry ingredient mixture alternately with 1/2 cup milk, beginning and ending with dry mixture. Divide batter evenly among muffin cups. Smooth tops of batter in cups with wet fingers.
Bake 20 to 24 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center of cupcake comes out clean. Cool 5 minutes in pan; remove from pan to cooling rack. Cool completely before frosting, about 30 minutes.
To make Chocolate Frosting, in medium bowl, beat 3 tablespoons softened butter and chocolate until blended. Add powdered sugar, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla and enough milk until smooth and spreadable.
