Ingredients:

Cake:

• 2 large eggs
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 1/2 sticks (12 tablespoons) unsalted butter
• 2 cups granulated sugar
• 1 cup water
• 1/4 cup vegetable oil
• 1/2 cup buttermilk
• 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/4 teaspoon salt

Frosting:

• 3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
• 2 sticks (1 cup) unsalted butter, softened
• 2 tablespoons instant vanilla pudding mix
• 3-4 tablespoons milk
• 3 cups confectioners’ sugar

Instructions:

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease a 10 x 15 x 1-inch jellyroll pan and set aside.
2. In a large bowl, mix together the flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt until well blended.
3. In a medium saucepan, melt 1 1/2 sticks of butter with 1 cup of water over medium heat. Whisk in 1/2 cup of peanut butter and vegetable oil, stirring until well combined. Pour this mixture into the flour mixture, and stir until blended.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, buttermilk, and vanilla extract. Add this mixture to the flour mixture and stir until well combined.
5. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 22-26 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean. Once done, remove from the oven and allow the cake to cool.
6. To make the frosting, beat the peanut butter and butter in an electric mixer until smooth. Add half of the confectioners’ sugar and milk, and beat well until smooth. Then, add the remaining confectioners’ sugar, milk, and vanilla pudding mix, and stir again until the frosting is smooth. If needed, add a bit more milk.
7. Spread the frosting on the cooled cake and serve.
