Somebody is Having Cake Tonight!

Peanut Butter Chocolate Cake
Ingredients:  1/3 C. butter, 2 1/4 C. flour, 1 1/2 C. sugar, 3 tsp. baking powder, 1 tsp. salt, 1/3 C. creamy peanut butter, 1 C. Milk, 2 eggs, 1 tsp. vanilla
Cream butter.  Add sugar, flour, baking powder and salt.  Add peanut butter and 2/3 cup milk; mix until flour is dampened. Beat thoroughly.  Add 1/3 cup milk, eggs and vanilla.  Beat for two minutes.  Pour into 2 (9 inch) round pans lined with wax paper.  Bake at 375 degrees (preheated) for 25 to 30 minutes.  Cool completely.
PEANUT BUTTER CREAM FILLING (optional but better with it in):  1 small package instant vanilla pudding, 1 C. milk, 1/4 C. peanut butter
Mix pudding with milk.  Beat for one minute.  Add peanut butter.  Mix well.  Put filling between 9 inch layers.  Or do like I did - slice each layer in half.  There is enough filling to put between three layers.
CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER FROSTING:
1/2 C. creamy peanut butter, 1/3 C. unsweetened cocoa, 2 2/3 C. powdered sugar, 1 tsp vanilla, 1/2 C. cream
Cream peanut butter and cocoa.  Add powdered sugar, vanilla and cream.  Beat until smooth.  Frost cake sides and top.
(And then I used a hot, wet spoon to make the s shaped curves in the frosting.  I used M&M's around the sides for decoration and because some birthday person really likes M&M's.  The candy made the bottom look better and covers up any spots that don't look pretty).
