Oh yum, yum, yum! Do you realize what you are seeing? These are FlufferNutter Cupcakes with a Nutter Butter on top (say that 3 times fast)! And now here they come, the questions. What is a FlufferNutter? Well a FlufferNutter is traditionally a sandwich made up of white bread, peanut butter, and marshmallow fluff. And this past weekend, I went with some friends to a crepe restaurant and they had a crepe called The Ybor Crepe which had peanut butter and marshmallow. The girls all loved it, and I pointed out that it is just a FlufferNutter in crepe form! They all looked at me like I was insane. So I had to explain what a FlufferNutter is and also how I think they are really delicious when you add Nutella. And there, among 3 dessert loving women, this cupcake was born.
So after much discussion and ideas, we decided that we had to start by finding a peanut butter cupcake, that is not too peanut buttery. It had to be just the right amount of peanut butter, so the flavor would not overpower everything else. And of course we wanted to inject the cupcake with Nutella! Then we went back and forth over how to include the marshmallow fluff, and decided instead to use the Marshmallow Frosting that I had saved to use one day. And lastly, we decided that if we were to have a FlufferNutter cupcake…we just HAD to top it with a Nutter Butter cookie! And so, here we are, a FlufferNutter Cupcake, with a surprise filling of Nutella, and a Nutter Butter on top!

The icing is incredible, similar to jarred fluff, but better.
