This cake is to die for! If you are a peanut butter and a chocolate lover, then you need to try this recipe. This is my grandma’s recipe with a few little adjustments. I wanted a lot more peanut butter on mine so that it was more balanced 😊 The cake itself is so moist and delicious, even after a few days. It doesn’t dry out. It is topped with gooey peanut butter and a yummy fudgy icing. You will need a glass of milk or a scoop of ice cream with this cake because it is rich! But it is so worth it. My family went wild over this recipe. It is simple to make and is a huge crowd pleaser! You can make this for family, friends, or for a potluck. I hope you love this recipe as much as we do!
