I should pack or do work but let's bake instead.

Title is pretty self explanatory. I live birthdays....other people's  that is. It's just another excuse to bake :) I have had a jar of white chocolate peanut butter I have been wanting to bake with so why not now? I made a Betty twist in a recipe I found (any surprise?)....the more I think of it I really only used it for measurements. Enjoy! Feel free to use  a different frosting idea! 

* I subbed in yogurt for milk and this made it more dense more muffin like - if you are looking for a fluffy cupcake this is not it!
