Scale

1 cup (2 sticks) butter

2 cups granulated white sugar

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a cupcake pan with paper liners.
In a large mixing bowl, melt the butter and stir in the granulated sugar and vanilla extract until well combined.
Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
In another bowl, sift together the cocoa powder, flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Fold in 1 cup of the peanut butter chips.
