Double Peanut Butter Cake
"From Taste of Home. For the peanut butter lovers..... My kids are especially big fans! When I make this, I always add a large spoonful of additional peanut butter to the frosting for a more peanutty, less sweet taste. Sorry, I don't have an accurate measurement - I'm bad about doing that. I would guess it's a heaping tablespoonful. :) My
family's only complaint is that I don't make this often enough. So
many recipes, so little time....."
