Ingredients

For the cake:

2 ¼ cups all-purpose flour
2 cups brown sugar
1 cup peanut butter
½ cup butter softened
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon baking soda
1 ¼ cups milk
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 large eggs

For the frosting:

½ cup peanut butter
2 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups powdered sugar
4-5 tablespoons milk
Mini chocolate chips for garnish

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).
In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, brown sugar, peanut butter, softened butter, baking powder, baking soda, milk, vanilla extract, and eggs. Blend until smooth and creamy.
Pour the cake batter into a well-greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the cake to cool completely.
In a microwave-safe bowl, heat the peanut butter and honey for the frosting for about 20-30 seconds until softened. Stir until well blended.
Add the peanut butter mixture to the rest of the frosting ingredients (vanilla extract, powdered sugar, and milk) and mix until smooth.
Ice the cooled cake with the frosting and sprinkle mini chocolate chips on top as garnish.
Slice and serve. Enjoy your delicious Peanut Butter Cake with Peanut Butter Frosting!

Notes

- Ensure the cake is cooled completely before frosting to prevent the frosting from melting.
- Warm the peanut butter and honey for the frosting slightly to make it easier to blend.
- Customize the cake by adding chopped nuts or additional chocolate chips to the batter for extra texture and flavor.
