Peanut butter chocolate cake

I’ve found myself having to make chocolate cake for various events the past month.  Faced with the decision of what to use for filling, I had to deal with not wanting to use frosting and also deal with a husband who absolutely abhors fruit filling.

In comes Peanut Butter & Co’s Dark Chocolate Dreams – peanut butter blended with dark chocolate.  Peanut butter and chocolate is a classic combination but you don’t really see a lot of chocolate cake with peanut butter filling.  At least I don’t.  Using this was perfect.  The dark color from the chocolate element makes it look like a chocolate filling but when you take a bite, you get a peanut buttery surprise.  I got rave reviews from everyone and even my health-conscious brother-in-law had seconds.

Peanut Butter & Co also has a white chocolate version.  And if you want a hazelnut flavor, try Nutella.
