Peanut Butter/Banana/Chocolate Trio Cupcakes

WE'VE MOVED! Now redirecting you to our new page.

Sometimes I have trouble deciding what to bake next. Audrey and I call it "baking block." You want to bake...but you're just not sure what your tastebuds are craving. And if your friends are anything like mine, they are maddeningly unhelpful and just tell you to decide because they "will love anything you make!" I mean, I guess it's nice that they have such faith in my baking abilities...but it really doesn't help resolve the whole deciding-what-to-bake dilemma.

These cupcakes came to me in a flash of inspiration during class one day last week. In the morning, I was dreaming about the flavors of banana, peanut butter, and chocolate in fantasies that rapidly escalated in decadence the closer it got to lunch time and the more my tummy growled, and by that evening I was putting the finishing spoonfuls of ganache on top of freshly baked peanut butter banana cupcakes. Not a bad way to end a day, if you ask me.
