Expert Tips

A little bit goes a long way when it comes to flavor. Adding just a small amount of peanut butter and mini chocolate chips gives great flavor, yet keeps fat and calories low. A combination of whole egg and egg white is used to keep the cholesterol and fat low.

These cupcakes turned out very moist, but I thought the flavor was a little bland. I didn't taste the peanut butter at all, but my coworkers liked them and said they were rich and that they could taste the peanut butter.
