3. Beat butter and brown sugar in a separate bowl until fluffy. Gradually beat in eggs, sour cream and vanilla until combined.
4. Using low speed, gradually blend in dry mixture and mix until combined. Slowly, pour in boiling water; scrape down sides of bowl and mix on low just until combined.
5. Divide batter evenly between lined cups. Bake for 22 minutes or until a tester inserted in centre comes out clean. Cool completely.
6. Frosting: Melt peanut butter chips in the microwave on MEDIUM (50%); microwave for 1 to 2 minutes; stir until smooth. Cool to room temperature.
