Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 cups granulated sugar
1 3/4 cups + 2 Tablespoons all-purpose flour
3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs
1 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup oil ((vegetable or canola oil))
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup boiling water (, or hot coffee)
1 batch Peanut Butter Frosting
1/2 cup butter ((1 stick), melted)
2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
3 cups powdered sugar
1/3 cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
12 mini Reese's Peanut Butter Cups (for topping on cake, optional)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°F. Grease two 8-inch round baking pans and line the bottoms with parchment paper.
  • Stir together sugar, flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and salt in large bowl.
  • Add eggs, milk, oil and vanilla and beat on medium speed for about 2 minutes.
  • Stir in the boiling water (your batter will be very thin--that's OK!). Pour batter into prepared cake pans.
  • Bake for about 30 to 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow to cool in the pan for 10 minutes; remove from pans to wire racks. Cool completely.
  • Once cakes have cooled, use a sharp serrated knife to cut each cake horizontally in half, so that you end up with four, thin cake rounds.
  • Place one cake layer on serving plate. Smooth 1/3 of the peanut butter frosting on top of that cake layer. Repeat with the remaining cake layers, adding a layer of peanut butter frosting between each layer of cake.

Time 1h20m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup all-purpose flour
¾ cup firmly packed brown sugar
⅓ cup peanut butter
2 tablespoons canola oil
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
⅜ teaspoon fine salt
½ cup whole milk
1 ½ cups water
⅓ cup white sugar
1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
½ teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 pinch salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a 1 1/2- to 2-quart baking dish. Set aside.
  • Combine flour, brown sugar, peanut butter, canola oil, baking powder, vanilla extract, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Beat using a hand mixer on medium speed to incorporate ingredients, about 30 seconds. Beat in milk slowly and mix for 1 1/2 minutes more. Spread batter evenly into the prepared dish using a rubber spatula. Place the dish onto a larger baking pan with sides at least 1/4-inch deep to catch potential spills.
  • Microwave water in a microwave-safe measuring cup until boiling, 2 to 3 minutes. Add sugar, cocoa, vanilla extract, and salt; stir until sugar and cocoa have dissolved. Pour onto top of cake batter; do not stir. Carefully place into the oven.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until cake is set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 40 minutes. Remove carefully from the oven and place onto a cooling rack to cool and thicken up, at least 20 minutes, before spooning out.

CHOCOLATE-PEANUT BUTTER SHEET CAKE



Chocolate-Peanut Butter Sheet Cake image

This sweet and simple sheet cake marries two great flavors that just plain belong together: rich and tender chocolate cake, and creamy peanut-butter frosting. For maximum fluff, go for a classic smooth variety of peanut butter, and plug in your mixer-manpower alone won't be enough. Scatter chopped peanuts along the edges for any crunchy fans in the house.

Time 2h10m

Yield Serves 10 to 12

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 stick unsalted butter, melted and cooled, plus more, softened, for pan
1 1/3 cups unbleached all- purpose flour
1/2 cup Dutch-process cocoa powder, sifted
2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt (we use Diamond Crystal)
4 large eggs, room temperature
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
2 teaspoons pure vanilla paste or extract
1 cup sour cream, room temperature
1 stick unsalted butter, softened
1 cup smooth peanut butter (not natural), such as Jif
1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
1/4 cup sour cream, room temperature
1/3 cup chopped salted roasted peanuts

Steps:

  • Cake: Preheat oven to 350°F. Brush a 9-by-13-inch or 8-by-12-inch baking pan with butter. Line with parchment, leaving a 2-inch overhang on long sides. Butter parchment.
  • Whisk together flour, cocoa, baking powder, and salt. Combine eggs and granulated sugar in the bowl of a mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Beat on high speed until thick and pale, about 4 minutes. Add flour mixture; beat just to combine. Add butter and vanilla; beat to combine. Add sour cream; beat until smooth.
  • Scrape batter into prepared pan, smoothing top with a spatula. Bake until top springs back when lightly touched and a tester inserted in center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes (for 9-by-13-inch) or about 40 minutes (for 8-by-12).
  • Let cool in pan on a wire rack 10 minutes. Using parchment overhangs, lift cake out of pan and let cool completely on rack. (Cake can be made to this point and stored at room temperature, wrapped in plastic, up to 1 day.)
  • Frosting: Beat butter and peanut butter on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Beat in confectioners' sugar until thick and fluffy. Remove from mixer; stir in sour cream by hand until frosting is silky and dense. Spread over cake; sprinkle top with peanuts. Frosted cake is best the day it's assembled, but can be refrigerated, wrapped in plastic, up to 1 day. Return to room temperature before serving.
