Categories     dessert

Time 1h45m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

Cooking spray, for the pans
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups granulated sugar
1 cup cocoa powder
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon fine salt
1 cup buttermilk
1 cup brewed coffee
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 large eggs
2 pounds confectioners' sugar
1 pound (4 sticks) unsalted butter
3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
2 tablespoons milk
Pinch of fine salt

Steps:

  • For the cake: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat three 6-inch-round cake pans with cooking spray.
  • Sift the flour, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder and salt into a large bowl. Mix with an electric mixer at medium speed for 1 minute. Add the buttermilk, coffee, vegetable oil and eggs. Mix at medium speed for 1 minute. Scrape the side and bottom of the bowl and mix on medium speed for 1 minute more. Divide the cake batter evenly among the prepared pans. Bake on the top rack until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cakes comes out clean, about 30 minutes.
  • Cool the cakes in the pans for 20 minutes then turn out onto wire racks to cool completely.
  • For the buttercream: Add the confectioners' sugar and butter to a large mixing bowl. Beat with an electric mixer on low speed until completely incorporated, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the peanut butter, milk and salt. Mix on high speed until the mixture becomes fluffy and lighter in color, about 2 minutes. Scrape the side and bottom of the bowl and mix again on high speed for 1 minute.
  • To assemble the cake: Level each cake round with a serrated knife or cake leveler. Use an offset spatula to spread a thin layer of the buttercream on top of one round. Top with a second round and spread it with a thin layer of buttercream. Repeat with the third round, spreading the buttercream on the top and sides of the cake. Smooth with a bench scraper.

GIANT CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER COOKIE CAKE RECIPE BY TASTY



Giant Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookie Cake Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: nonstick cooking spray, all purpose flour, natural cocoa powder, baking soda, kosher salt, unsalted butter, granulated sugar, large eggs, vanilla extract, unsalted butter, Skippy® Creamy Peanut Butter, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, kosher salt, milk, heavy cream, semisweet chocolate chip, roasted, salted peanuts

Provided by Skippy

Categories     Desserts

Yield 1 cake

Number Of Ingredients 18

nonstick cooking spray, for greasing
4 cups all purpose flour
1 ⅓ cups natural cocoa powder
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon kosher salt
3 sticks unsalted butter, room temprature
3 cups granulated sugar
4 large eggs
4 teaspoons vanilla extract
3 sticks unsalted butter
1 ½ cups Skippy® Creamy Peanut Butter
4 ½ cups powdered sugar
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
¾ teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons milk
½ cup heavy cream
1 cup semisweet chocolate chip
½ cup roasted, salted peanuts, roughly chopped

Steps:

  • Make the cookie cake layers: Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease 4 8-inch round cake pans with nonstick spray and line the bottoms with parchment paper.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and sugar on medium speed for about 4 minutes, or until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, 1 at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add the vanilla and mix for 1 minute more, until incorporated.
  • Reduce the mixer speed to low and gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  • Divide the dough evenly between the prepared cake pans, spreading evenly to cover the bottoms of the pans completely.
  • Bake the cookie cakes for 15-20 minutes, or until they have firmed up and start to pull away from the sides of the pans. It's okay if they are a bit soft in the centers, but not runny; they will continue to firm up as they cool. Let the cookie cakes cool completely, about 30 minutes.
  • Make the peanut butter frosting: Add the butter and Skippy® Creamy Peanut Butter to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Whip on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Gradually add the powdered sugar and mix on low speed until incorporated. Add the vanilla, salt, and milk, and whip on medium speed for 3-5 minutes, or until very light and fluffy. Transfer the frosting to a piping bag fitted with a large round tip.
  • Assemble the cookie cake: Pipe a small amount of frosting onto the center of a plate or cake stand, then place a cookie cake layer on top to secure. Pipe the frosting on top of the cookie in a spiral pattern to cover completely. Repeat with the remaining cake layers and frosting, finishing with a thin layer of frosting atop the final cookie layer. Using an offset spatula, spread the top layer of frosting evenly over the top of the cake. Using a cake scraper, gently smooth the frosting around the sides of the cake so it is flush with the edges of the cookies, adding more frosting as needed to fill any gaps. Transfer the cake to the refrigerator or freezer to chill for about 30 minutes.
  • Make the chocolate ganache: Add the cream to a medium microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high power for 30 seconds. Add the chocolate chips and let sit for 1 minute, then stir until the chocolate is completely melted and the ganache is smooth. Let cool for 1-2 minutes, then transfer to a piping bag. Cut a small opening in the tip of the bag.
  • Remove the cake from the refrigerator. Carefully pipe the ganache around the sides of the cake so it drips over the edge, varying the length of each drip. Pipe more ganache on top of the cake and use an offset spatula to spread in an even layer.
  • Transfer the remaining peanut butter frosting to a piping bag fitted with a large star tip. Pipe dollops of frosting around the top edge of the cake. Garnish the cake with the chopped peanuts.
  • Slice and serve.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use high-quality chocolate for the best flavor. A semisweet or bittersweet chocolate with a cocoa content of at least 60% is a good choice.
  • If you don't have a microwave, you can melt the chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water, stirring constantly until melted.
  • To make the peanut butter filling, use a creamy peanut butter that is not too runny. If your peanut butter is too thick, you can add a little milk or cream to thin it out.
  • If you don't have a piping bag, you can use a Ziploc bag with the corner snipped off to pipe the peanut butter filling into the jars.
  • Chill the cakes for at least 30 minutes before serving, or overnight for the best flavor.
