Ingredients
- 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup cream cheese, softened
- 2 cups sugar
- 4 eggs
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup diced fresh peaches
- 1/4 cup honey
- Peach slices for garnish (optional)
Steps to Sweet Perfection
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin pan with cupcake liners. This is where the magic begins!
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and cream cheese together until creamy and smooth. This step is key. You want that buttery goodness to blend perfectly!
- Add the sugar to the creamy mixture and continue to beat until it’s blended and fluffy. We want these cupcakes to feel like a warm hug!
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, and then gently fold them into the creamy mixture one at a time, mixing until just combined.
- In another bowl, mix the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add this dry mix to the wet ingredients, stirring gently until everything is well blended.
- Stir in the diced peaches and honey. This is where those sweet summer vibes kick in. Don’t be afraid to taste—it’s your kitchen, after all!
- Pour the batter into the lined muffin pan, filling each cup about two-thirds full. You want them to rise beautifully, after all!
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. The smell will be heavenly, so be ready to fight off your family as they try to sneak a taste!
- Once baked, let them cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- For the frosting, you can whip up some cream cheese frosting or simply serve them as they are, topped with peach slices for that extra flair.
Cooking Tips
Now, just a few little notes to make your baking experience even sweeter:
- If fresh peaches aren’t in season, canned peaches work just fine! Just be sure to drain them well and chop them up.
- Want to add some pizzazz? Toss in a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg in the batter for an extra zing that works wonders with honey and peach!
- Don’t worry if your cupcakes don’t rise as much as you thought; sometimes they just want to be little, compact buddies!
This recipe became a staple for my family gatherings after my kids took one bite and decided they were the “new favorite.” Before this, I had to bribe them for bite-sized vegetables—talk about a win!
