Best 5 Inside Out Peanut Cake Recipes

INSIDE-OUT PEANUT BUTTER COOKIE CUPS

Steps:

• BEAT brown sugar, peanut butter, 1/2 cup shortening, milk and vanilla in bowl of electric mixer at medium speed until well blended. Beat in egg. Combine flour, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. Add to shortening mixture. Beat at low speed just until blended. Refrigerate about 1 hour or until firm.
• HEAT oven to 350 degrees F. Spray mini-muffin pans with no-stick cooking spray.
• SHAPE dough into 1-inch balls. Roll in sugar. Place each ball in prepared mini-muffin cups. Press dough onto bottom and sides of cup to within 1/2-inch of top.
• BAKE 7 to 8 minutes or until cookies are set and just beginning to brown. Cool 10 minutes on cooling racks. Remove cookie cups very carefully to cooling racks to cool completely.
• PLACE chocolate chips and 1 teaspoon shortening in microwave-safe bowl. Microwave at MEDIUM for 1 to 2 minutes or until chips are shiny and soft. Stir until smooth. Spoon about 1/2 teaspoon chocolate mixture into center of each cookie. Sprinkle with chopped peanuts. Cool completely.

REESE'S PEANUT BUTTER CAKE

Steps:

• Prepare cake according to directions for a 9X13 pan. Set aside to cool.
• For the frosting, mix peanut butter, powdered sugar and vanilla with mixer. Add small amounts of milk until desired consistency is achieved. You want a thinner consistency for easier cutting.
• Spread frosting evenly over cool cake. (Hint -- if cake is partially frozen, there is less "tearing" when spreading the frosting.).
• For the ganache, place the chocolate chips in a heat proof bowl. In a saucepan, whisk together the heavy cream and the vanilla and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Pour over the chocolate chips and let sit for 5 minutes. Whisk until completely smooth then pour over peanut butter frosting.
• Sprinkle the chopped peanut butter cups over the warm chocolate to ensure it sticks. Chill for about 30 minutes to set chocolate.
• As an alternative; you can also use a bundt cake pan. Double your peanut butter frosting ingredients. Fill the bundt pan halfway, add a thin layer of peanut butter frosting, then fill the remainder with the cake mix. Make the peanut butter frosting a little thinner so it "drips" better.
• Another idea would be to add the chopped peanut butter cups to the cake mix before baking.

INSIDE-OUT PEANUT BUTTER BLOSSOMS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F. Line cookie sheets with cooking parchment paper. In large bowl, stir cookie mix, vegetable oil, water, egg and flour until soft dough forms.
• Shape dough into 20 (1 1/2-inch) balls. Flatten each ball to form 2 1/2-inch circle. Press 1 milk chocolate into center of each circle, making sure to form dough around chocolate to enclose; reshape into balls. Roll in sugar. Place 2 inches apart on cookie sheets. Discard remaining sugar.
• Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until edges are set. Cool 2 minutes; remove from cookie sheets to cooling rack. Cool completely, about 20 minutes. Store covered in airtight container.

THE ELVIS PEANUT BUTTER BANANA BURGER

Steps:

• Heat a griddle over medium heat. Butter the inside slices of each burger bun, then toast in the skillet until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Set aside.
• Heat a large skillet over low heat; pan-fry the bacon for 2 minutes, then increase heat to medium-high and continue to pan-fry until crispy, 5 to 7 minutes, turning often. Drain on paper towels and discard most of the bacon grease.
• Cut each banana lengthwise into long slices, about 4 inches in length. Pour the sugar into a small bowl, then add in the banana slices to coat both sides in sugar. Fry the banana slices in the same skillet over medium heat until caramelized, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Cook the burgers on a griddle over medium-high heat for 3 to 4 minutes per side, seasoning with salt and pepper. Press down firmly with a spatula to flatten the patties as they cook. A thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (71 degrees C).
• To assemble the burgers, lay down the bottom half the burger bun and spread on 1 tablespoon peanut butter. Place a burger patty on top, then add another tablespoon of peanut butter. Top with 2 to 3 slices of caramelized bananas, then 2 to 3 pieces of bacon. Drizzle with 1 teaspoon honey, then place the remaining burger bun on top.
