Banana Cupcake with Chocolate Ganache and Peanut Butter frosting

2666ZCNZAYW7

My sister-in-law had been craving a banana cupcake with peanut butter frosting so when I saw these on Pink Parsley , I thought they'd be perfect. Two things I did different, I used semi-sweet chocolate instead of bittersweet and I didn't use banana extract. I just used a little more mashed banana instead. I made these for the 4th of July party at her house and stuck them in the refrigerator once we got there. I think they should sit out for a bit before eating so the ganache in the middle has a chance to melt a little. I'm not a huge fan of peanut butter frosting but this was actually pretty good!

ENJOY!

5 things I'm lovin' right now

1. Pottery Barn Chandelier Knock Off I love the tutorials over at Living with Lindsay , she makes every project seem so easy to accomplish. She took this chandelier and changed the ribbon color and instead of flowers used birds to fit her room design. I love this one but maybe would change the color scheme to something like black and fushia. I think Christa would love that.

2. Grilled Cheese Sandwiches YUM! I must try these. Thank you Pioneer Woman

3. No sew tutu Love love love these, hopefully I can make them for the girls before they are too old to want to wear them.

4. Margarita Cupcakes

5. Photoshop Elements Tutorials: You can find them all over the web but I love Rita's CoffeeShop Free PS/PSE actions and tutorials. Here things are broken down so easily that even I understand how to do them!
