Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     dessert

Time 2h5m

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

Nonstick cooking spray, for the pan
One 15.25-ounce box yellow cake mix
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs
1 stick (8 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted and cooled
3/4 cup Concord grape jelly, at room temperature
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
One 8-ounce package cream cheese, at room temperature
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 large eggs
3 cups confectioners' sugar
1/2 cup coarsely chopped roasted salted peanuts
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
6 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
3 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
1/3 cup Concord grape jelly

Steps:

  • For the crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Spray a 13-by-9-inch glass baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Combine the cake mix, vanilla and eggs in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on medium speed until smooth, about 1 minute. Add the butter and mix just until combined. Spread the mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish.
  • For the filling: Dollop the jelly over the cake batter and smooth to the edges with an offset spatula. Beat the peanut butter and cream cheese in a clean electric mixer bowl with the paddle on medium speed until light and smooth, scraping the sides occasionally, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the vanilla and eggs and beat until smooth. Add the confectioners' sugar and beat on low speed to incorporate, and then beat on medium until light and smooth, about 1 minute. Pour over the cake layer and smooth the top with an offset spatula. Sprinkle with the peanuts.
  • Bake until the edges are puffed and golden brown and the center is just set, 35 to 40 minutes. Let cool.
  • For the glaze: Melt the butter in a medium microwave-safe bowl in the microwave. While the butter is still hot, whisk in the peanut butter until smooth. Whisk in the confectioners' sugar until smooth. Put the grape jelly in a small microwave-safe bowl and microwave just until you can whisk it smooth, only about 15 seconds (don't melt it completely). Put the peanut butter glaze in a small resealable plastic bag and the jelly in another. Snip off a corner of each with scissors and drizzle the glazes all over the cake. Cut into squares to serve.

CAKE:
1 (18.25-ounce) box yellow cake mix
1 egg
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, melted
FILLING:
1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened
2 eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 (16-ounce) box confectioners' sugar
1/2 cup (1-stick) butter, melted

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 13x9x2-inch baking pan. In the bowl of an electric mixer, combine the cake mix, egg, and butter; mix well.

Don't be afraid to make a judgment call on the cooking time, because oven temperatures can vary. You want the center to be a little gooey, so don't bake it past that point! Pumpkin: This variation has to be at the top of my list, especially around Thanksgiving. For the cake part, I sometimes use a spice cake mix. I have even used a chocolate cake mix, but I think my favorite is the basic yellow cake mix. Follow the original recipe, adding a 15-ounce can of pumpkin pie filling and an extra egg to the cream cheese filling. Bake as usual, remove from oven, and allow to cool. Cut into squares and top each square with a pecan half. Serve with a dollop of fresh whipped cream. I promise you'll never want pumpkin pie again! Pineapple: Add a 20-ounce can of drained crushed pineapple and an extra egg to the cream cheese filling. Proceed as directed above. You can also add coconut to cream cheese Lemon: Use a lemon cake mix in place of the yellow cake. Add the juice (approximately 1/4 cup) and zest of 2 lemons to the cream cheese filling. Proceed: as directed above. Carrot Cake: Use a spice cake mix, and add 1 cup chopped nuts and 1 1/2 cup finely grated carrots to the cream cheese filling. Proceed as directed above. Peanut Butter: Use a chocolate cake mix. Add 1 cup creamy peanut butter and an extra egg to cream cheese filling. You can sprinkle the top of batter with 1 cup chopped peanuts if you like. Proceed as directed above. Chocolate Chip: Use either yellow or chocolate cake mix. Sprinkle 1 cup chocolate chips and 1 cup chopped nuts on top of filling. Proceed as directed above. Banana: Use a yellow cake mix. Prepare cream cheese filling as directed, beating in 2 ripe bananas and an extra egg. Proceed as directed above. Nutty: Use a yellow cake mix, and add 1 cup chopped nuts to the cake mixture. Proceed as directed above. Chippy: Stir 1 cup white chocolate chips, peanut butter chocolate chips, butterscotch morsels, Heath Almond Toffee Bits or Heath Milk Chocolate Toffee Bits into filling. Proceed as directed above.
