I feel kind of bad.
I have been sitting on these cupcakes for weeks now.
Okay, technically I obviously have not been sitting on them. No, that is just nasty. Plus, they were demolished the second I shot the last photo……
Which was exactly twenty-six days ago. I know, I am so sorry, and also completely shocked, that I am just now posting them.
I mean, I have never, not once held on to a post that long. This is for sure a record. Meaning this never, ever, happens. Normally you guys see posts a couple days after I make something. Sometimes I’ll even post it the very next day. When that happens it means I am crazy excited about whatever the posted food is. Meaning it’s crazy good and I cannot contain, nor control, my excitement. Meaning I must blab on and on about it the very next day.
If you can believe it, I actually have one more post that I made a few weeks ago while I was still home in Colorado. I really tried to crank a lot of recipes out while I had the time and had no dirty boys begging for food every hour. Honestly, I’m still shocked that I have not told you guys about these yet…
Because honestly, these are so stinkin’ good.
Like crazy insane, rock your world good.
I just wish I still had at least a few. Cause I promise I can so remember what these cupcakes tasted like.
I made them the day before I went to South Carolina.
This meant I had twelve cupcakes and me. Now sure, I probably could have downed them all myself. No I could have, but I did not want to end up with a giant stomach ache all night and then have to get up and get on an airplane at three in the morning.
So I did the nicer and smarter thing and gave a few to the worker dudes next door.
Remember them?
Yeah, they really liked me after that.
Pretty sure the next day when I made these burgers they were looking over wishing I was giving those to them too, but my brother ate those.
Sorry guys. Maybe if you guys are still around in August when I get home you’ll get some then.
These cupcakes have it all going on.
The sweet, the salty, the peanutty and even the boozy.
Ah yes, you better believe I added at least a little scotch to my butter scotch sauce. It is obviously totally optional, but highly recommended.
Oh and the frosting is amazing!!
So good. Just make it. Eat with a spoon and go to your happy place.
Seriously, though these cupcakes will become your happy place.
And yes, I know I am asking you to turn on your oven for these, but I promise they are worth every ounce of sweat you drip to make them.
Every last once.

Can’t even help it. I must make more (especially after my mom sees this post, then I really won’t have a choice). Really, I must.
Those look amazing! I love the salty pretzels with the boozy frosting, so perfect!
The boozy frosting is the best! Honestly, so good!
Thanks Jackie!
I can’t believe you withheld these from us either! They look amazing.
I know, I am so sorry!! Never again!
Thanks Meagan!
Just stop it! These look so incredibly decadent and over-the-top in the best way! I want every bit of them!
Thank you, Mercedes!! They truly are so good!
the cupcakes sounds wounderful but those pretzel toppings take the cake! Or should I say.. cupcake! wow!
Hehe! Thank you so much, Angie! The pretzels rule!
Want. Now. These wouldn’t stand a chance around me. Sweet and salty is my middle name. Well not really but ; )
Haha! Thank you so much, Paula!
That is my kind of cupcake. Love that pretzel on the bottom, how cool is that. Would be demolished at my house too.
Thank you so much, Cathy!
Seriously right now? SERIOUSLY?!
Haha! Thank you so much, Shelly! That means the world coming from you!
These look like Chocolate Covered Pretzel Heaven!
Ha, they kind of are! Thank you, Victoria!
Holy freaking moly! I love the combo of butterscotch and peanuts! Sweet and salty is my absolute FAVE! Only thing is, I honestly cannot stand making cupcakes… I’ve only made them probably like 5 times- they’re always so much work. But these look worth it and then some!
Oh no! I love making cupcakes because most times I can always make them look cute and well they are always delicious! Hope you give these are try and change your mind about cupcakes. I promise, they are not hard!
Thanks so much, Sophie!
Chocolate covered pretzels! Man, peanut butter and butterscotch is such an amazing combo and these just put it over the edge!
I agree! Thank you so much, Mary!
Those look so decadently good!
Thank you, Kevin!
These look incredible! Sweet and salty perfection!
I’ve started working on blog posts for the time that I’ll be busy with our new little one and it seems so weird to be thinking about fall holiday posts, let alone planning them! So, 26 days doesn’t seem weird at all to me 🙂
Oh man, I am not sure I could plan that far ahead! way to go you!!
Thanks Jennifer!
Oh my gosh, chocolate covered pretzels at the bottom of a cupcake? That is insane and I love it! The booze just pushed it over the edge!
Great pictures by the way.
Thank you so much, Christina!! The pretzels in the bottom are so good and yes, the booze really does put them over the edge!
Seriously?! I can’t believe you held out on us for so long! These look amazing – a must-make! 🙂
Haha! I know, I am so sorry!!
Thank you, Nicky!
I just posted peanuts + butterscotch today too – I am huge, huge fan of the combo and your cupcakes look amazing!!!!!!
The boozy butterscotch sauce has got to be like the best thing ever.
And that there are choc covered pretzels everywhere in these babies – all the texture, salty, sweet, crunchy, soft, fluffy. Just everything in one. Love them! Pinned!
The boozy butterscotch sauce is truly the best thing ever. So good!!
Funny that we posted similar flavors on the same day!! your cookies are killing me. They look amazing! Thanks so much for pinning, Averie!
