Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups granulated sugar

  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.

  • Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • In a mixing bowl, beat the peanut butter and softened butter until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and beat until well combined. Mix in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract and the heavy cream until the frosting is smooth and spreadable.
  • Place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread a layer of peanut butter frosting on top of the cake.
  • Drizzle the caramel sauce over the peanut butter frosting, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
  • Carefully place the second cake layer on top of the caramel filling.
  • Frost the top and sides of the cake with the remaining peanut butter frosting.
  • Drizzle additional caramel sauce over the top of the cake for decoration.
  • Slice and serve the cake, and enjoy the delicious combination of chocolate, peanut butter, and caramel!
