Number Of Ingredients 14

Cake:
•2 cups of all-purpose Flour
•2/3 cups of unsweetened cocoa powder
•1 1/4 teaspoon of baking Soda
•1/4 teaspoon baking powder
•3 eggs
•1 2/3 cup sugar
•1 teaspoon vanilla
•1 cup of Mayonnaise
•1 1/3 cups water
Frosting:
•3 cups of powder sugar
•1/3 peanut butter (use a heaping cupful of PB)
•1 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla

Steps:

cake
Mix all wet items first in a mixing bowl till well blended. Add all dry items but the flour and cocoa, once well blended add the flour and cocoa a little at a time. Once it is well blended pour batter into a greased baking pan and bake at 350° for about 30 or/and a tooth pick comes out clean. Let cake completely cool before adding frosting.
frosting
Cream together peanut butter and vanilla. Then slowly add sugar till well blended. If too thin add more sugar if too thick add about a tablespoon at a time of peanut butter till it is creamy. Spread over cool cake.
(I find it easier to slightly heat the frosting in the microwave for a few seconds at a time to spread it on the cake)
