Peanut Butter and Chocolate Melt Away Cake image

This is a little different than the melt away cake already posted. This one has 1/2 cup more butter in the cake and a chocolate icing. I made it in a Williams Sonoma Lady Ann cake pan. It is 1 layer pan with an indention for the peanut butter. It looks very professional and appealing.
