Ingredients You’ll Need:
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup brown sugar, packed
- 1 cup buttermilk
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup boiling water
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter (for frosting)
- 1/2 cup butter, softened (for frosting)
- 2 cups powdered sugar (for frosting)
- 1/4 cup heavy cream (for frosting)
- Dust of cocoa powder (optional, for garnish)
Instructions to Get This Cake Poppin’:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease two 9-inch round cake pans.
- In a large bowl, mix the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, salt, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until combined.
- In another bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Once mixed, add this to the dry ingredients.
- Carefully stir in the boiling water until the batter is smooth. Don’t be alarmed—it’ll be pretty runny! Pour the batter evenly into the prepared cake pans.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Let cakes cool in the pans for about 10 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
- While the cakes cool, let’s whip up that incredible peanut butter frosting! In a large bowl, beat the peanut butter and softened butter together until creamy.
- Gradually add in the powdered sugar and heavy cream, beating until fluffy and well combined.
- Once the cakes are cool, place one layer on a serving platter. Spread a generous layer of frosting on top, then place the second layer on and frost the top and sides of the whole cake.
- If you’re feeling fancy, dust the top with a little cocoa powder for that extra flair!
And voilà! You’ve got yourself a stunning Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Cake that’s ready to be devoured. This creation is rich, moist, and absolutely indulgent. Perfect for family gatherings or just to treat yourself—you deserve it!
