Peanut Butter Chocolate cake with Peanut Butter frosting :)
I made this cake the other day…..it was SO GOOD! I didn’t take any pictures of it, so just use your imagination! OK, here it goes…..
2- 1/4 all purpose flour (I use cake flour instead)
1- 1/2 cups white sugar
1/2 cup smooth peanut butter
1- 1/4 cup milk
3-1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla (I always add a little bit more, for fun!)
3 large eggs
1. Heat oven to 350. Grease bottom and sides of pan(s) Lightly flour.
2. Beat all ingredients until well blended. Pour 2/3 batter into prepared pans. Stir in 3 TBS baking cocoa and 1/8 tsp baking soda into remaining batter. Drop chocolate batter by tablespoon fulls onto peanut butter batter. Pull knife through batters using S shape.
3. Bake rectangle 40-45 minutes, 9 inch rounds 30-35 minutes or until toothpick insterted in middle comes out clean.
Peanut Butter Buttercream frosting:
3 cups powdered sugar
1/3 cup smooth peanut butter
1-1/2 tsp vanilla
2-3 tablespoons milk
1. Mix powdered sugar and peanut butter. Stir in milk and vanilla until smooth. You may need a little more milk to make it spreadable.
And that’s that! I did decorate a bit with some fudge frosting, but it turned out really thick, I think I’ll have to find a different recipe for that next time. Enjoy!
