Peanut Butter Choc Chip Cake

Yeah that's right I made a cake with peanut butter and chocolate chips...amazing right?!!?  Where did I find this you ask?? Where else, Pinterest.  Here's a link to the recipe online.

So this was relatively easy.  Cake from scratch has all the basic ingredients.  I followed everything to a T except for the baking time.  I'm not quite sure if it's my oven or what but mine took about 20 more minutes to bake than the recipe stated so just keep checking it if it's not set up in the middle.  I actually made two of these cakes and both took longer.

But here it is, the recipe and my picture.  The cake is ridiculously moist and just melts in your mouth.  Have a big glass of milk next to you and you are set.  The cookie like crumble on top gets a little crunchy and wow it's just perfect.  This will be a go to cake recipe for me from now on!
