A moist Peanut Butter and Jelly Cupcake made with a Reese’s peanut butter cup on bottom then topped with your favorite jelly. The peanut butter makes these a healthy alternative to sugar!

Here lately I’ve been baking a lot of cupcakes. I’ve made Blueberry Pie Cupcakes, Banana Pudding Cupcakes, and Hot Fudge Sunday Cupcakes. I am loving all the variations you can get from a cupcake.

These cupcakes are a healthy alternative to regular cupcakes, because they are made with peanut butter. They make great treats for the kids, too.
