Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour one sheet cake pan or one cookie sheet with 1 inch sides.
- In a large bowl, beat eggs until lemon colored. Add vanilla and salt. Stir in sugar, flour, milk, baking powder, and melted butter or margarine.
- Bake for 20 to 25 minutes. Do not overbake.
- While the cake is still warm, spread with peanut butter. Immediately sprinkle with chocolate morsels, and put the pan back into the oven to melt the chocolate. Spread the chocolate evenly over the peanut butter. Refrigerate until chocolate is set. Alternatively, you can let the peanut butter cool and harden. Later, melt the chocolate, and spread it on the cake. It comes out in two distinct peanut butter and chocolate layers that way.

TASTYKAKE KANDY KAKE LAYER CAKE
I am a Pennsylvania gal through and through. Love the state, love the food and love the people. One of my favorite PA treats are small cakes and cupcakes made by Tastykake out of Philadelphia PA. A friend of mine loves the Peanut Butter Kandy Kakes so I came up with this recipe so that she can have the taste of them any time (even though you can order them from their website). This is super simple box cake recipe that only takes minutes to make. I think the reason it works is because of the particular brands of cake mix and frosting. Hope you enjoy.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350.
- Mix eggs until nice and yellow then continue mixing in the the remaining cake ingredients. Pour into a 15 x 2 pan and bake for about 15 minutes or until tests done.
- Immediately after removing from oven spread the 1 1/3 cup of peanut butter over hot cake. (I don't actually measure the peanut butter, I just use enough to give the cake a nice even layer.) Put aside and let cool. If I'm in a hurry I put it in the fridge to speed things up.
- When cake is cool but NOT cold melt the tablespoon of peanut butter along with the milk chocolate in the microwave,about 1 - 1.5 minutes. Spread over cake and cool completely before cutting.
"MOCK" PB KANDY KAKES
Ok so these are very similar to Tasty Cake Kandy Kakes but made with Angel Food Cake rather than traditional heavy cake. It is a tad bit healthier than the original.

Steps:
- Prepare the cake and place in a 9x14 pan lined with parchment. Bake 350 for about 40 mins or until firm in center. Cool on wire rack away from heat sources
- Prepare frosting by beating butters and liquids together until smooth. Incorporate 2 cups of the sugar into the mix and beat until combined. Then add the other 2 cups until frosting consistency.
- Prepare your work surface by using parchment, foil, plastic wrap, or the like and cut rounds out of cake using cookie cutter, can, jar, cup, or whatever you have on hand that is circular.
- spread the frosting on top of each round and freeze when finished.
- In a double boiler or two pots on the stove, melt chocolate until smooth. Can also be done in microwave in intervals on half the power, check package directions.
- There are a few was to coat the frozen cakes but I prefer to lay out your foil, parchment, whatever and place a dollop of chocolate the size of your cake in the surface. Place cake on top, then cover with chocolate until all sides are coated. If you feel brave using the dip method, be quick as the frosting melts fast!
- Set finished cakes in fridge to set.
Tips:
- For the perfect Kandy Kake crust, use a combination of graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan and refrigerate it while you make the filling.
- When making the filling, use high-quality chocolate chips for the best flavor. Dark chocolate chips will give you a richer flavor, while milk chocolate chips will be sweeter.
- To make the filling extra creamy, use heavy cream instead of milk. You can also add a few tablespoons of sour cream or Greek yogurt for a tangy flavor.
- Once the filling is set, top it with whipped cream and chocolate shavings for a decadent dessert.
- Kandy Kake can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. However, it is best enjoyed fresh.
Conclusion:
Kandy Kake is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its creamy chocolate filling and crunchy graham cracker crust, it is sure to be a hit with everyone. So next time you are looking for a special dessert, give Kandy Kake a try. You won't be disappointed!
