  6. Bake for 20-25 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  7. Let cupcakes cool completely on a wire rack.
  8. In a bowl, beat softened cream cheese with powdered sugar until smooth. Drizzle in honey and mix well.
  9. Chill frosting for at least 30 minutes before piping onto cupcakes.
  10. Pipe frosting onto cooled cupcakes and garnish with peach slices and honey. Add chopped nuts or edible flowers if desired.

Notes

  • Ensure not to overmix the batter to keep cupcakes light and fluffy.
  • For added moisture, consider adding more diced peaches or a splash of peach juice to the batter.
  • Frosted cupcakes can be refrigerated for up to 3 days. Bring to room temperature before serving for best flavor.
  • Can be frozen, with or without frosting, wrapped tightly for up to 2 months.
