~ National Peanut Butter Day ~


* Peanut Butter Cake with Peanut Butter Frosting*

Ingredients:
1/2 c butter
3/4 c peanut butter
1 c sugar
1 egg
1 3/4 c flour
1 tsp baking soda
1 c sour milk (add 1 tablespoon of vinegar to 2% milk)
(For the Frosting) 1/8 c peanut butter ~ 4 oz cream cheese, room temperature ~ 1 Tbsp HOT water ~ 1 1/3 c powered sugar
Directions: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9x13 inch pan using butter. Now cream the butter, sugar and peanut butter. Add beaten egg. Mix until creamy. Mix baking soda into the flour and then add this into the creamed mixture alternatly with the milk. Blend until it looks a little fluffy. Usually about a minute on medium speed with a hand mixer. Bake at 350 degrees 25-30 minutes or until knife comes out clean. While cake is cooling make the frosting. Combine all ingredients and mix on medium speed with hand mixer until creamy. If too thin, add a little more peanut butter. When cake is completely cooled spread your frosting. Nothing left to do now but ... enjoy Peanut Butter Day! ~ Chef ~
