Chocolate Reese's Peanut Butter Cupcakes

I have always wanted to make cupcakes from scratch but never had.....for my first attempt I decided on  "the absolutely best chocolate reese's cup peanut butter cupcakes you'll ever eat!!" 

The cupcake recipe called for "dutch-process cocoa powder" - I couldn't find any!
**to substitute the regular cocoa powder mix 3 tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa powder with 1/8 teaspoon of baking soda for every one ounce of dutch-process cocoa powder**


Since this was my first time mixing frosting I was surprised how difficult it was to mix (granted I was using a wire whisk since I couldn't find my hand mixer) - but alas, I forgot to add the milk!!





The feedback I got from people about these was great...and like me, the frosting was the favorite part to most people! They are pretty rich so I was glad because it made it easier to stop after eating just one at a time! ;-)
