One of my New Years resolutions for my blog was to make more cereal cupcakes. These kinds of treats are always fun and bring out the kid in all of us. My Cinnamon Toast Crunch Cupcakes were/are still a huge hit. So I was hoping these would get the same response. One of my friends, Laina, tried one of these and told me “That was seriously the best cupcake I have ever had in my life.” Thanks Laina!
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line pans with cupcake liners.
2. In a small bowl, sift cake mix and set aside.
3. In a large bowl, gently whisk eggs, oil, buttermilk, sour cream and vanilla extract.
4. Add cake mix and cinnamon to wet ingredients and stir.
5. Fill cupcake liners 3/4 full and bake for 15-20 minutes or until and inserted knife comes out clean.
6. Ganache: Melt chocolate and peanut butter together and stir until smooth. Dip the tops of the cooled cupcake into the ganache and let set for at least 10 minutes.
7. Buttercream: Beat butter and peanut butter. Add powdered sugar a little at a time until you reach your desired consistency. Add vanilla extract. (Add 1 Tablespoon milk if you buttercream is too thick.)
8. Pipe buttercream onto ganache covered cupcake and roll in Reese's Puffs cereal.

Oh my goodness! These look amazing!
My brother and sisters (they’re triplets) were obsessed with Reese’s Puffs cereal. This would be perfect for their birthdays in June!!
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the idea! Making them tonight 🙂
I made these a couple of days ago and they are delicious! The only complaint that i have is that unless you eat them right away, the cereal gets soft/stale. If you are taking them somewhere the following day, I would wait to add the Reese’s Puffs until right before you go.

Do you think I could make a cake instead of cupcakes with this recipe?
Yes, it may just need a little extra baking time depending on how much your pan is.

My cupcakes fell apart when I dipped them – so then I spooned the ganache over them…but the ganache was already contaminated with cake crumbs. The first couple look great. I think next time I will just spoon the ganache over.
Love your ideas and this page!
