Peanut Butter Kandy Kakes are a delicious vanilla cake, topped with a layer of creamy peanut butter, then followed by a layer of yummy Hershey’s chocolate. A winning combination!

Made in a 10” x 15” jelly roll pan, once cut into squares, these are a dessert that can serve a crowd.

If you love chocolate and peanut butter, you will love these! 😋
This is the vanilla cake just out of the oven… it’s ready to spread on the creamy peanut butter.

Ingredients:

  • Pam Spray to grease the pan
  • 2 cups Flour, plus extra Flour to flour the pan
  • 1 teaspoon of Baking Powder
  • 1 pinch of Salt
  • 4 Eggs
  • 1 teaspoon of Pure Vanilla Extract
  • 2 cups of Sugar
  • 1 Tablespoon of Vegetable Oil
  • 1 cup Milk
  • 1 cup Creamy Peanut Butter (I use Jif Brand)
  • 2 Hershey’s Milk Chocolate Giant Bars (7.56 ounces each)
The yummy peanut butter must be chilled in the refrigerator before spreading on the chocolate layer.
Here is how it looks once the chocolate layer is spread. Yum!

Instructions:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°. Spray and flour the 10” x 15” jelly roll pan.
  • Prepare the dry ingredients: In a bowl combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Give it a quick whisk to combine.
  • In a large bowl, add in eggs, vanilla, and sugar. Beat until fluffy and light in color, about 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Next, add in oil and milk, mix to combine.
  • Lastly, add in the dry mixture of flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix to just combine. Do not over mix. The batter will be thin.
  • Pour into the prepared jelly roll pan. Bake at 350° for 15 – 20 minutes, until golden brown and a toothpick in the center comes out clean.
  • While the cake is still hot, spread with the creamy peanut butter. Refrigerate for 1/2 hour.
  • Once cooled, break up Hershey Bars in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave in 30 second intervals, stirring in between, until chocolate is melted.
  • Spread the melted Hershey’s chocolate over the peanut butter.
  • Refrigerate until chocolate is cool. Remove and let it come to room temperature. Slice into squares and serve.

Enjoy!
