I saw this Recipe Showdown cake recipe and had to try it. Dh was like "WOW! You have got to try it!" I told him that I had already had enough of it. I had to give this away so I wouldn't eat more. LOL! This recipe makes a good size cake so you don't need big pieces. This is a chocolate peanut butter lovers dream! :D
