Pin, Share, Tweet

Who loves cupcakes? I know I do! These gluten free cupcakes with peanut butter frosting are the cupcakes that I made for my boys and their friends after a fun day of Geocaching. They have a fun “buried treasure” inside! The boys loved them and it was a great reward after a hard day of searching for treasures.
