Peanut Butter Chocolate Fudge Cupcakes

200 grams butter
1/4 cup smooth peanut butter
100 grams dark chocolate
3/4 cup sugar (I used half dark brown, half white caster)
1/2 cup sour cream (or normal cream would do)
1 1/2 cups self raising flour
1/3 cup cocoa powder
2 eggs

Preheat the oven to 160 degrees celsius and prepare a muffin tin - this recipe was the perfect amount for 12 cupcakes.

In a saucepan on the stove melt together the butters, chocolate and sugar. When the mixture is smooth and well combined, pour into a large bowl and let it cool somewhat.

When cool, stir in the sour cream. Sift in the flour and cocoa mix well.

Lightly beat the eggs in a separate bowl and add them to the mixture, mix until just combined. Spoon the mixture carefully into the prepared tin.

Bake for 20 minutes and let them cool.
