Chocolate Banana Cupcakes

I have never met anyone who doesn't enjoy a cupcake. I'm sure the minority are out there somewhere, but for those with a sweet tooth for these tiny cakes, is also a very delicious and easy recipe to try!  WARNING: These cupcakes are yummy, super moist and very addictive :) Enjoy with caution.

Frosting

1 cup Butter
2 cup Icing sugar
1 tbsp Milk
1 tsp Vanilla extract
1 tsp Banana extract

Beat butter on high speed in an electric mixer for 5 minutes, scraping the inside of the bowl if necessary. The butter should almost look fluffy. Slowly add icing sugar and Milk and mix on medium speed for 1 minute. Add the extract and mix for 1 minute. Scoop icing into air tight bowl and refrigerate for 30 minutes before piping/frosting.
