This is a sweet, fluffy banana cupcake, and the frosting is a good mix of creamy peanut butter and chocolate. They are topped with a crispy banana chip for color and crunch!
Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Prepare a muffin tin with paper liners.
For the cupcakes, in the bowl of a standing mixer, cream together the butter and brown sugar. Add the eggs and the vanilla and cream until combined.
In a separate bowl, combine the dry ingredients. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and partially mix. Add the banana chunks and beat everything on high until you have a smooth batter.
Scoop the batter into the prepared muffin tins. Bake the cupcakes for about 20 minutes or until they are just baked through and fluffy. Let them cool completely on a rack before frosting.
To make the frosting, combine the butter, sugar and milk in the bowl of a standing mixer. Combine and then add the peanut butter and the chocolate and whip to a creamy frosting.
Frost the cupcakes and garnish with a banana chip.
Enjoy!

I made these tonight w/ my girls – in minis! We opted out of making the frosting due to time a limit, but instead spread a small dollop of Nutella on top. Delicious mini cupcakes, and so sooo easy! Thank you for posting a great banana recipe.
