I have become such a huge fan of Pinterest that I thought I would post a Pin of the Day. Today’s Pin is this delicious looking Peanut Butter Sheet Cake. It looks so moist, and that warm glaze type frosting would make it perfection! And hey, my kids have an infatuation with Peanut Butter!
The recipe for Peanut Butter Sheet Cake is taken from Tasty Kitchen. It was a HUGE hit!
Ingredients
2 cups Sugar
1 teaspoon Baking Soda
2 cups Flour
1 teaspoon Salt
2 sticks Butter
1 cup Water
1 cup Peanut Butter
½ cups Milk
1 teaspoon Vanilla
2 whole Eggs
1 stick Butter
½ cups Peanut Butter
6 teaspoons Milk
1 pound Powdered Sugar
1. In a large bowl, mix together sugar, baking soda, flour and salt.
2. Combine butter, water and peanut butter in a saucepan and bring to boil. Pour over flour mixture.
3. Add milk, vanilla and eggs to your other mixture, and mix.
4. Pour batter onto a large cookie sheet or jelly roll pan. Bake at 400°F for 20 minutes.
Frosting:
Bring butter, peanut butter and milk to boil in saucepan. Add one pound of powdered sugar and mix (can add 1 tsp vanilla here if you’d like). Pour warmed frosting over cooled cake. YUM!
I just made this. Smells delish! I think the measurements for the frosting are wrong though, unless I misunderstand them. My frosting became crumbly and unpourable. I added more milk. Did I misunderstand the directions? 1/2 cup pb, one stick butter, 6 tbls milk and one pound powdered sugar?
Oops… Cook error, I used 6 tsp.
Lol….6 tsp is what it calls for. Maybe it should be 6 tbls.
6 tsp is actually correct Jenni!
So how did it taste?
I wonder if cooking it too long could make it too thick. Altitude may have something to do with it too. I really used 6 tsp of milk, then the peanut butter and a stick of butter. Melted in a saucepan, it should be enough liquid.
This cake is very good. I have the same recipe except for the frosting, mine is 6tbl milk. I make this cake quite often.
just made this for easter today~! made two. tried one! Amazing, will be made every easter from now on* thankyou
Yay! I’m so glad it was a hit!
