QUICK & EASY CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER CAKE



Quick & Easy Chocolate Peanut Butter Cake image

This recipe came from a lady who used to make this for a bingo consession stand. It is soo good and soo easy. The hardest part is finding plain chocolate cake mix in a box! But I am sure you substitute a homemade chocolate cake as well. Just make sure it is plain chocolate because anything else (devils food, double choc, etc.) may be too rich. If you want, you could substitute light or sugar free items in order to be a little healthier.

2 c sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1 c butter or margarine

2 large eggs

1/3 c milk
dash salt
1 1/2 stick butter or margarine

Steps:

  • 1. COMBINE self-rising flour, 2 cups sugar and 1/2 tsp salt in a mixing bowl.
  • 2. BRING TO A BOIL 1 cup butter, 1 cup water, and 4 Tbsp cocoa. Pour over the flour mixture then add 2 eggs, 1/2 cup buttermilk, 1 tsp soda, and 1 tsp vanilla.
  • 3. Mix well and pour into greased 9x13" baking pan (we use a glass baking dish). Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes OR until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
  • 4. Remove cake from oven to wire rack and poke holes in the top of the cake (liberally ... this cake is best when the icing is able to seep down into the cake).
