Peanut Butter Banana Cupcakes with Chocolate Ganache

It was time for me to start creating my own crazy cupcakes and I started with this one. I am so glad I did because it is awesomely delicious. You might be thinking that this is way too many good things to be combined but fear not! It's completely tasty. It might take a little more effort than the average cupcake but it is worth it, I double promise.

Bonus: This is an instructable of three cupcakes instead of just one! (I might be stretching that a bit but it can be thought of that way.)

Step 1: Ingredients

Each cupcake recipe makes about 6 cupcakes.
