Steelers Cupcakes -Chocolate Cupcakes with Peanut Butter Icing

These cupcakes were made by request for a party.  Although I love the combination of chocolate and peanut butter, I never made peanut butter icing.  I was very excited.  

Here is the recipe that I used for the Peanut Butter Icing:

• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 1 cup creamy peanut butter
• 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
• 3/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
•                                                   1/3 cup heavy cream

Place the powdered sugar, peanut butter, butter, vanilla, and salt in the bowl and mix with an electric mixer until combined.  Mix on medium-low speed until creamy, scraping down the bowl with a rubber spatula as you work. Add enough cream until it reaches the desired consistency, and beat on high speed until the mixture is light and smooth.
