Peach Cupcakes with Peach Buttercream Frosting

It's summertime. Peach Cupcakes; what could be better. My neighbor was going on vacation, so she surprised me with sharing her fruit, and I received a basket of beautiful fresh peaches. I had been thinking about making peach cupcakes all summer, so this was going to be fun.

I found a great recipe online for Vanilla Cupcakes with fresh peaches. I tweaked it a bit to my liking, and these cupcakes came out amazing. They are so moist and flavorful. The fragrance combination of the fresh baked cupcake and peaches is permeating the kitchen with enchantment.

The Peach Buttercream Frosting Recipe calls for fresh peach puree. It is just the right flavor, not to sweet, and very peachy.

Follow these recipes precisley and you will be very satisfied.

Have a peachy-keen day. :)
