Did you check out the pumpkin spice balls?

 

 

 

I whipped up these babies last night, intending to frost with pumpkin spice frosting like I usually do.

I ran out of pumpkin spice frosting. I could have made more, but decided to use up the remaining peanut butter frosting I had left. I also made more chocolate fudge chip cupcakes with peanut butter frosting.

 

 

(three guesses on what I had for breakfast this morning.)

 

 

 

Never eaten pumpkin and peanut butter flavors together? PUH-LEEEEASE try! Today!

Unless of course, you dislike pumpkin (like my husband) or dislike peanut butter (how is that possible??).  Or you are allergic to peanut butter. Or pumpkin.

 

 

But really, it is such a delicious combo! If you dislike either, this may change your mind.

Probably not, but if so, let me know. I’d love to be responsible for creating the undying love between a human and peanut butter and pumpkin.
