There is something about chocolate and peanut butter mixed together that just makes my mouth water! This cake is the perfect combination! Not too much peanut butter or chocolate. I also love the fact that this cake doesn’t need any frosting. The crumb topping with chocolate chips is the perfect topping!

Great looking cake, so delicious!
Looks delicious! thanks for sharing!
Looks fabulous, but I searched through all the links and still can’t find the nutritional info- I am on a super strict diet and need to know the carb count. :{

My husband has been encouraging me to start making cakes from scratch. This recipe looks like a great place to start.
Jennifer, why not enter the recipe over at myfitnesspal.com’s recipe builder? That way you’ll always have it, and that site & service is free. And you can decide how many servings, so you can control everything to your liking.
its in the oven right now!
YUM!
I’m so disappointed with this cake. I followed the recipe exactly, the only exception was I accidentally bought chocolate chunks and not chips. I had to bake it 10 minutes longer than it called for to get it to not be wet in the middle and it came out good but very dry. I don’t know if the chunks could cause that but I won’t be making it again. Not worth it.
How many servings does it make??
It bakes in a 9 x 13 inch pan, so it just depends on how small you cut them. You could cut 4 across and 5 down, leaving you 20 pieces of cake.
