Cake Thursday: May 14th

Glorious Chocolate Cake with Peanut Butter Cream Cheese Frosting and Bittersweet Peanut Butter Chocolate Ganache.

A mouthful in many ways.

The Cake, three ways:

This proved to be one of the most popular cakes to date. The combination of deep chocolate in the cake, peanut butter, and the bittersweet chocolate that I used in the ganache was brilliant.

Not being a fan of too-sweet frosting, I cut the sugar in the recipe from 5 cups (!) to 2 cups, and had no problems.

Speaking of, the recipe is from the book Sky High, but you can also find it over at Smitten Kitchen.
