Ingredients
- 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter (or Sunflower Nut Butter or Soy Nut Butter – note: these options are often thinner than regular peanut butter, so additional confectioner’s sugar may be necessary to create the correct consistency)
- 1/2 cup butter or non-dairy alternative (e.g. Earth Balance® Buttery Sticks) at room temperature
- 2 cups confectioner’s sugar
- 1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
- 3 Tbs. milk of choice (dairy or non-dairy like soy, coconut, almond or hemp)
- extra colorful gluten-free candies to sprinkle on top
Instructions
- Mix together all ingredients except milk until smooth. Gradually add milk, one tablespoon at a time, until of a spreadable consistency. Depending on what kind of peanut butter you use (“natural” kinds sometimes have more liquid) you may need to add more or less milk.
- Frost the cupcakes and top with sprinkles or colorful candies … and enjoy!
