Ingredients

Servings

• 2 cup All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• ¹⁄₂ teaspoon Baking soda
• ¹⁄₄ teaspoon Salt
• ¹⁄₂ cup Unsalted butter, softened
• ¹⁄₂ cup Granulated sugar
• ¹⁄₂ cup Peanut butter
• 2 Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• ¹⁄₂ cup Buttermilk
• ¹⁄₂ cup Boiling water
• ¹⁄₂ cup Cream cheese, softened
• ¹⁄₂ cup Powdered sugar
• ¹⁄₄ cup Creamy peanut butter
• ¹⁄₂ cup Whipping cream

Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13-inch baking pan.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
3. In a large bowl, cream together the butter, granulated sugar, and peanut butter until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
4. Gradually mix in the dry ingredients, alternating with the buttermilk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Stir in the boiling water until the batter is smooth.
5. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Allow the cake to cool completely.
6. In a mixing bowl, beat together the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and creamy peanut butter until smooth. In a separate bowl, whip the whipping cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture.
7. Spread the cream cheese mixture over the cooled cake. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.
8. Slice and serve the peanut butter cake chilled.
