Elvis Cupcakes

The first time I ever had these, my sister-in-law Christine made them. Oooooh are they good. Banana muffin, with a chocolate kiss hidden inside, topped off with peanut butter icing. Mmmm...

• 2 cups flour
• 3/4 cup sugar
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1 cup mayonnaise
• 1 1/3 cup mashed ripe bananas (about 3 medium)
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 18 milk chocolate kisses

Peanut Butter Frosting:

• 1/3 cup creamy peanut butter
• 2 cups icing sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla
• 3-4 tbsp milk
• milk chocolate chips (optional)

In large bowl combine flour, sugar, baking soda and salt. In another bowl, combine the mayo, bananas and vanilla; stir into dry ingredients until just combined. Spoon one tbsp full of batter into each paper-lined muffin cup. Top each with a chocolate kiss, pointed side down. Fill cups 2/3rds full with remaining batter. Bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes or until toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to cool completely. In a large bowl, combine peanut butter, icing sugar, vanilla and enough milk to achieve a spreadable consistency. Frost cupcakes. Garnish with chocolate chips if desired.

Yield: 1 1/2 dozen
