Chocolate Devils Food Cupcakes with Peanut Butter Buttercream

I'm following in my same trend of buttercreams!  These were for a friend of Timm's birthday.  I used a devils food cake mix and to it I added chopped up milk chocolate chunks and chopped up semi-sweet chips.  The little fine crumbles I saved for sprinkling on the cupcakes later.  Other than that I followed the directions on the box of the cake mix.  Once the cakes were cooled I made a peanut butter buttercream frosting.  I used all sorts of crazy designs for the frosting on these and then sprinkled some of them with the left over chocolate shavings.  Hope the birthday boy likes these!

Peanut Butter Buttercream

1 1/2 sticks sweet cream butter

3/4C peanut butter

1/3C 1% milk

1tsp vanilla

1/2tsp salt

4-5C powdered sugar

Beat the butter and peanut butter with vanilla until

smooth.  Slowly add in the powdered sugar with

the salt until you reach a stiff texture. Add milk and

 or more sugar until you reach the consistency you

desire. 

ps I always make about 8 mini cupcakes

so that I can taste test them before I serve them!

Also its nice to have some samll bites arounds.
