Instructions

To make this delicious chocolate peanut butter poke cake, start by preheating your oven to 350 degrees F. Grease and flour a 9×13 inch baking pan and set aside.

Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Remove the cake from the oven and let cool completely.

Once the cake has cooled, prepare the peanut butter topping. In a medium bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, butter, powdered sugar, heavy cream, and vanilla extract until light and fluffy. Spread the topping over the cake. In a small saucepan, melt the chocolate chips and butter over low heat. Once melted, stir in the heavy cream until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Pour the ganache over the cake and spread evenly. Let the cake chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving.
