Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Cake

This super moist dark chocolate peanut butter cake marries the flavors of rich dark chocolate and sweet creamy peanut butter—a match made in heaven if ever there was one. Fill and coat the cake with peanut butter frosting, then cover the whole dessert with semi-sweet chocolate ganache, pipe more peanut butter frosting on top…and get ready to swoon, because this is love at first bite.

Ingredients:

  •   1 and 3/4 cups (219g) all-purpose flour (spoon & leveled)
