📝 Preparation Steps
1
Line a 12-cup cupcake pan with liners. Preheat the oven to 350°F/180°C.
2
Bring the water to a boil, stir in the oats, remove from the heat, and cover for ⏱️ 15 minutes. Let the oatmeal cool to room temperature before using.
3
In a stand mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, light brown sugar, mini chocolate chips, baking powder, and salt.
4
Whisk together the milk, oil, sour cream, eggs, peanut butter, vanilla, and cooled oats in a separate bowl.

5
Add the cubed butter to the mixing bowl and mix on low speed until it resembles coarse sand.
6
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl and mix until just combined, scraping down the bowl to ensure everything is combined.
7
Scoop the batter into the prepared cupcake pan. You will have enough batter to make 12 cupcakes, each liner about 3/4 full.
8
Bake for ⏱️ 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out covered in a few moist crumbs. Let the pan cool on a wire rack for ⏱️ 10 minutes, then remove each cupcake from the pan and let them finish cooling on the rack.
9
To make the frosting, beat the butter, brown sugar, and peanut butter for ⏱️ 5 minutes. Once smooth, add the heat-treated flour and powdered sugar, mixing to combine. Then, mix in the heavy cream and vanilla. Once combined, stir in the M&Ms.
