The King

The King Cupcake!

Some of you are aware of how The King, aka Elvis, loved his Peanut Butter and Banana Sandwiches. And who can blame him? It's one of the greatest combinations out there. I know that Elvis didn't have bacon on his sandwiches, but if he would have tried it, he would never just go with the simple peanut butter and banana ever again. This cupcake is the ULTIMATE sandwich cupcake. I tried to create something The King would be quick to approve of!

Banana Split Cupcakes

Banana Split Cupcakes 

Banana Cake filled with a Strawberry Chocolate Ganashe, Plugged with a Thick Slice of Banana, Frosted with a Pineapple Buttercream and Topped with a Maraschino Cherry, Strawberry Chocolate Ganashe drizzle, and Salted Peanuts 

I've seen just about everyone create their own version of this Cupcake, but none of them ever seemed like they would capture the flavor of a true, classic Banana Split. So here, I have put together what I think tastes exactly like an All-American Banana Split sans the ice cream -- but you can always add that on the side ;)
