REESE'S PEANUT BUTTER CAKE

Steps:

• Prepare cake according to directions for a 9X13 pan. Set aside to cool.
• For the frosting, mix peanut butter, powdered sugar and vanilla with mixer. Add small amounts of milk until desired consistency is achieved. You want a thinner consistency for easier cutting.
• Spread frosting evenly over cool cake. (Hint -- if cake is partially frozen, there is less "tearing" when spreading the frosting.).
• For the ganache, place the chocolate chips in a heat proof bowl. In a saucepan, whisk together the heavy cream and the vanilla and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Pour over the chocolate chips and let sit for 5 minutes. Whisk until completely smooth then pour over peanut butter frosting.
• Sprinkle the chopped peanut butter cups over the warm chocolate to ensure it sticks. Chill for about 30 minutes to set chocolate.
• As an alternative; you can also use a bundt cake pan. Double your peanut butter frosting ingredients. Fill the bundt pan halfway, add a thin layer of peanut butter frosting, then fill the remainder with the cake mix. Make the peanut butter frosting a little thinner so it "drips" better.
• Another idea would be to add the chopped peanut butter cups to the cake mix before baking.
