Chocolate Cupcakes with Peanut Butter Cookie Dough Frosting

Cookie dough and cupcakes. Chocolate and peanut butter. I'd say this cupcake creation might just be the death of all of us. But oh what a sweet way to go!

Gimme Some Oven has created this amazing looking recipe by tweaking a cake mix and topping the whole thing off with cookie dough in lieu of frosting! Grab yourself a tall glass of cold milk and enjoy the recipe here!

Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cupcakes

It's been a very long time since I've shared a recipe with you... so since I'm long overdue I knew this cupcake needed to be super delicious.

No worries.... this one is SUPER DELICIOUS!

Chocolate cake filled with chocolate chip cookie dough topped with cookie dough frosting, mini chocolate chips and a mini chocolate chip cookie.  Probably one of the best cupcakes I've ever made.

I do have to admit though... I can't take complete credit for these cupcakes, Recipe Girl made them first.  BUT... of course, I put own spin on them.

Butter Lane Unveils New Cupcake Flavor

Rachel and I stopped by Butter Lane yesterday to see co-owner Maria Baugh and try some of the new cupcake offerings.

Counterfolks Lauren Henry and Eric Hoop helped us out:

We were there to try the newest flavor to the lineup, chocolate chip cookie dough!

It's chocolate cake with cookie dough filling (baked in!) and cookie dough frosting.

SO good!  The cake was standard chocolate cake but the creamy dough-y filling lent it some texture and "goo" and the frosting wasn't too sweet.

Maria says it's the cupcake the devil creates in his kitchen. Agreed!

We also tried the inside-out, a frozen cupcake treat:

Cookie dough filling made it yummy and the frozen chocolate cake was moist and chewy. Rachel thought it was brownie-esque, and I agree. A cakelike brownie.

 

Here's a photo of Rachel taking a photo. Meta, huh?

Also new, frozen frosting shots.

I double-dog dare you to eat a whole one.

Thanks Maria, for sharing the new flavors with us!
