GIANT CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER COOKIE CAKE RECIPE BY TASTY



Giant Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookie Cake Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: nonstick cooking spray, all purpose flour, natural cocoa powder, baking soda, kosher salt, unsalted butter, granulated sugar, large eggs, vanilla extract, unsalted butter, Skippy® Creamy Peanut Butter, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, kosher salt, milk, heavy cream, semisweet chocolate chip, roasted, salted peanuts

Provided by Skippy

Categories     Desserts

Yield 1 cake

Number Of Ingredients 18

nonstick cooking spray, for greasing
4 cups all purpose flour
1 ⅓ cups natural cocoa powder
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
3 sticks unsalted butter, room temprature
3 cups granulated sugar
4 large eggs
4 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 sticks unsalted butter
1 ½ cups Skippy® Creamy Peanut Butter
4 ½ cups powdered sugar
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
¾ teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons milk
½ cup heavy cream
1 cup semisweet chocolate chip
½ cup roasted, salted peanuts, roughly chopped

Steps:

  • Make the cookie cake layers: Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease 4 8-inch round cake pans with nonstick spray and line the bottoms with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugar on medium speed for about 4 minutes, or until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, 1 at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add the vanilla and mix for 1 minute more, until incorporated.
  • Reduce the mixer speed to low and gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  • Divide the dough evenly between the prepared cake pans, spreading evenly to cover the bottoms of the pans completely.
  • Bake the cookie cakes for 15-20 minutes, or until they have firmed up and start to pull away from the sides of the pans. It's okay if they are a bit soft in the centers, but not runny; they will continue to firm up as they cool. Let the cookie cakes cool completely, about 30 minutes.
  • Make the peanut butter frosting: Add the butter and Skippy® Creamy Peanut Butter to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Whip on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Gradually add the powdered sugar and mix on low speed until incorporated. Add the vanilla, salt, and milk, and whip on medium speed for 3-5 minutes, or until very light and fluffy. Transfer the frosting to a piping bag fitted with a large round tip.
  • Assemble the cookie cake: Pipe a small amount of frosting onto the center of a plate or cake stand, then place a cookie cake layer on top to secure. Pipe the frosting on top of the cookie in a spiral pattern to cover completely. Repeat with the remaining cake layers and frosting, finishing with a thin layer of frosting atop the final cookie layer. Using an offset spatula, spread the top layer of frosting evenly over the top of the cake. Using a cake scraper, gently smooth the frosting around the sides of the cake so it is flush with the edges of the cookies, adding more frosting as needed to fill any gaps. Transfer the cake to the refrigerator or freezer to chill for about 30 minutes.
  • Make the chocolate ganache: Add the cream to a medium microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high power for 30 seconds. Add the chocolate chips and let sit for 1 minute, then stir until the chocolate is completely melted and the ganache is smooth. Let cool for 1-2 minutes, then transfer to a piping bag. Cut a small opening in the tip of the bag.
  • Remove the cake from the refrigerator. Carefully pipe the ganache around the sides of the cake so it drips over the edge, varying the length of each drip. Pipe more ganache on top of the cake and use an offset spatula to spread in an even layer.
  • Transfer the remaining peanut butter frosting to a piping bag fitted with a large star tip. Pipe dollops of frosting around the top edge of the cake. Garnish the cake with the chopped peanuts.
  • Slice and serve.
  • Enjoy!

PEANUT BUTTER & CHOCOLATE CAKE



Peanut butter & chocolate cake image

The sweet and salty combo of peanut butter and chocolate make this cake irresistible - decorate with pretzels for added crunch

Provided by Edd Kimber

Categories     Afternoon tea, Dessert, Treat

Time 1h55m

Number Of Ingredients 12

200g cold unsalted butter , diced, plus extra for greasing
2 tbsp cocoa powder
200g dark chocolate (roughly 70% cocoa solids), roughly chopped
300g light brown muscovado sugar
4 large eggs
175g self-raising flour
1 tsp baking powder
250g unsalted butter at room temperature
600g icing sugar
300g smooth peanut butter (I used Skippy - other brands I've tried have a tendency to split the icing)
100ml double cream
75g salted pretzels

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and grease 2 x 22cm round cake tins, lining the bases with baking parchment and greasing the parchment too.
  • Put the cocoa in a small bowl with 100ml hot water. Whisk together until smooth, then set aside. Put the butter and chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water and melt gently together, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat and allow to cool slightly.
  • In a large bowl, beat the sugar and eggs together using an electric whisk until thick and pale. With the blades still running, pour in the chocolate mixture, mixing until smooth and fully combined. In a separate bowl, mix together the flour and baking powder. Sieve the dry ingredients over the chocolate mixture and fold together until no lumps remain. Add the cocoa mixture and mix to combine. Divide the batter between your prepared tins and bake for 30-35 mins or until a skewer inserted into the middle comesout clean. Allow the cakes to cool in the tins for about 10 mins, then turn out onto a wire rack, peeling off the parchment, to cool completely.
  • For the icing, beat the butter in a large bowl with an electric whisk until light and creamy. Beat in the icing sugar a little at a time, then add the peanut butter, mixing until smooth. Add a pinch of salt and the cream, again mixing until smooth.
  • To assemble the cake, use a large serrated knife to slice each cake in half. Place the first round of cake onto a cake board or serving plate and top with a thin layer of icing. Repeat until all the cake layers have been used. To decorate, use the remaining icing to spread over the top and sides of the cake. Use a spatula or a palette knife to create a swirl pattern around the outside of the cake, and finish by pressing the pretzels onto the top and sides - there is enough to cover about half the sides, leaving the icing partially on display. Best served within 2 days of baking, but the cake will keep for up to 4 days.

CHOCOLATE-PEANUT BUTTER SHEET CAKE



Chocolate-Peanut Butter Sheet Cake image

This sweet and simple sheet cake marries two great flavors that just plain belong together: rich and tender chocolate cake, and creamy peanut-butter frosting. For maximum fluff, go for a classic smooth variety of peanut butter, and plug in your mixer-manpower alone won't be enough. Scatter chopped peanuts along the edges for any crunchy fans in the house.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cake Recipes

Time 2h10m

Yield Serves 10 to 12

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 stick unsalted butter, melted and cooled, plus more, softened, for pan
1 1/3 cups unbleached all- purpose flour
1/2 cup Dutch-process cocoa powder, sifted
2 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt (we use Diamond Crystal)
4 large eggs, room temperature
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
2 teaspoons pure vanilla paste or extract
1 cup sour cream, room temperature
1 stick unsalted butter, softened
1 cup smooth peanut butter (not natural), such as Jif
1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
1/4 cup sour cream, room temperature
1/3 cup chopped salted roasted peanuts

Steps:

  • Cake: Preheat oven to 350°F. Brush a 9-by-13-inch or 8-by-12-inch baking pan with butter. Line with parchment, leaving a 2-inch overhang on long sides. Butter parchment.
  • Whisk together flour, cocoa, baking powder, and salt. Combine eggs and granulated sugar in the bowl of a mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Beat on high speed until thick and pale, about 4 minutes. Add flour mixture; beat just to combine. Add butter and vanilla; beat to combine. Add sour cream; beat until smooth.
  • Scrape batter into prepared pan, smoothing top with a spatula. Bake until top springs back when lightly touched and a tester inserted in center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes (for 9-by-13-inch) or about 40 minutes (for 8-by-12).
  • Let cool in pan on a wire rack 10 minutes. Using parchment overhangs, lift cake out of pan and let cool completely on rack. (Cake can be made to this point and stored at room temperature, wrapped in plastic, up to 1 day.)
  • Frosting: Beat butter and peanut butter on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Beat in confectioners' sugar until thick and fluffy. Remove from mixer; stir in sour cream by hand until frosting is silky and dense. Spread over cake; sprinkle top with peanuts. Frosted cake is best the day it's assembled, but can be refrigerated, wrapped in plastic, up to 1 day. Return to room temperature before serving.

QUICK & EASY CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER CAKE



Quick & Easy Chocolate Peanut Butter Cake image

This recipe came from a lady who used to make this for a bingo consession stand. It is soo good and soo easy. The hardest part is finding plain chocolate cake mix in a box! But I am sure you substitute a homemade chocolate cake as well. Just make sure it is plain chocolate because anything else (devils food, double choc, etc.) may be too rich. If you want, you could substitute light or sugar free items in order to be a little healthier.

CHOCOLATE-PEANUT BUTTER BUNDT CAKE



Chocolate-Peanut Butter Bundt Cake image

This cake version of a peanut butter cup boasts moist devil's food cake wrapped around a soft, peanut buttery cake core. The peanut butter cake batter will stay nicely centered if you enlist the help of a resealable plastic bag or pastry bag to pipe it into a ring in the middle of the batter, but you don't need to be so exacting. If that feels too fancy, spooning it in will yield equally delicious results. The cake is nicely sweet on its own, but take it over the top by adding peanut butter and chocolate glazes. Keep the glazes thin so that they're fluid enough not only to evenly coat the surface and run own the sides of the cake, but also so they combine and marble together to make Instagram-worthy swirls.

Time 2h30m

Yield One 10-inch cake

Number Of Ingredients 26

3/4 cup/180 grams smooth peanut butter (not natural)
1/2 cup/115 grams cream cheese, at room temperature
1/3 cup/75 grams light or dark brown sugar
1 large egg, at room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
Nonstick cooking spray
1 cup/95 grams unsweetened cocoa powder, plus more for dusting the pan
1 cup/240 milliliters boiling water
1 cup/240 milliliters cold buttermilk
1 cup/225 grams unsalted butter (2 sticks), at room temperature
1/2 cup/120 milliliters neutral oil, like vegetable or canola
2 cups/400 grams granulated sugar
4 large eggs, at room temperature
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 cups/385 grams all-purpose flour
1 1/4 teaspoons baking powder
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
1/4 cup/60 milliliters heavy cream, plus more as needed
1/4 cup/60 grams smooth peanut butter (not natural)
1/2 cup/60 grams confectioners' sugar
Pinch of fine sea salt
1/3 cup/80 milliliters heavy cream
1/3 cup/55 grams chopped bar semisweet chocolate

Steps:

  • Make the peanut butter filling: In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the peanut butter, cream cheese and brown sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Add the egg and vanilla and mix on medium speed until fully incorporated. Add the flour and salt and mix on low speed to combine. Scrape the mixture into a large resealable plastic bag (or pastry bag) and set aside. (Alternatively, you can scrape the mixture into a medium bowl.) If necessary, rinse and dry the paddle attachment and bowl before proceeding.
  • Make the cake: Heat the oven to 325 degrees. Lightly spray a 10-inch bundt pan with nonstick spray. Add a few spoonfuls of cocoa powder into the pan and tap it around until the pan is fully coated in cocoa.
  • Place 1 cup/95 grams cocoa powder in a medium heat-safe bowl, and pour the boiling water over it. Whisk well to combine, then add the buttermilk and whisk to combine.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, cream the butter, oil and sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, mixing on medium speed until fully incorporated and scraping the bowl between each addition. Add the vanilla and mix on low speed to combine.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt to combine. Add about a third of this mixture to the mixer and mix on low speed to combine.
  • Add half of the cocoa-buttermilk mixture to the mixer and mix on low speed to combine. Continue to alternate adding the dry and wet ingredients until the batter is uniformly combined.
  • Pour about 2/3 of the cake batter into the prepared pan and spread into an even layer. Cut a 1-inch opening from one of the bottom corners of the bag and squeeze the peanut butter filling into the pan, making a ring in the center of the chocolate batter aiming not to touch the outer edge or inner tube of the pan. Alternatively, you can gently spoon the peanut butter mixture on top of the chocolate batter, aiming to create a ring shape.
  • Pour the remaining chocolate cake batter on top of the peanut butter filling and gently spread into an even layer. Transfer the pan to the oven and bake until a toothpick or skewer inserted into the center comes out clean, about 1 hour or up to 1 hour 10 minutes.
  • Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then use a small offset spatula to gently loosen the cake at the edges and around the inner tube, and invert it onto a cooling rack to cool completely.
  • Make the peanut butter glaze: Heat the cream in a small pot to a simmer. In a small heat-safe bowl, mix the peanut butter and confectioners' sugar to combine, then add the hot cream, and mix until smooth. It should be thick but still loose enough to drizzle easily.
  • Make the chocolate glaze: Heat the cream in the small pot to a simmer. Place the chocolate in a medium heat-safe bowl, then pour the hot cream over it. Stir until the mixture is totally smooth. It will be thinner than the peanut butter glaze.
  • Place the cake on the cooling rack set over a baking sheet. Spoon half of the chocolate glaze over the cake, letting it drip down the sides, then spoon half of the peanut butter glaze on top. Repeat this process with the remaining glaze, and use the back of the spoon to gently swirl where the two glazes meet in a few spots. Gently remove the cake and transfer to a serving platter. Allow the glaze to set at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
