Peanut Butter Sheetcake


If you like peanut butter at all you need to make this. I actually don't each much peanut butter...but if it is in a dessert I love it. This is so yummy. It is just like chocolate sheet cake but peanut butter. Next time I may mix it up and do chocolate cake with the peanut butter icing. Or peanut butter cake with chocolate icing. But it is great just all peanut butter too. Here is the recipe:

* 2 cups sugar
* 1 teaspoon Baking Soda
* 2 cups Flour
* 1 teaspoon Salt
* 2 sticks Butter
* 1 cup Water
* 1 cup Peanut Butter
* ½ cups Milk
* 1 teaspoon Vanilla
* 2 whole Eggs
* 1 stick Butter
* ½ cups Peanut Butter
* 6 teaspoons Milk
* 1 pound Powdered Sugar

Preparation Instructions

In a large bowl, mix together sugar, baking soda, flour and salt. Set aside.

Combine butter, water and peanut butter in saucepan and bring to boil. Pour over flour mixture.

Pour in large cookie sheet or jelly roll pan. Bake at 400F degrees for 20 minutes.

Frosting:

Bring butter, peanut butter and milk to boil in saucepan. Add one pound of powdered sugar. Pour warmed frosting over cooled cake.
