Chocolate Peanut Butter Ooey Gooey Cake
I could not have been more excited to make this cake. It combines two of my favorite things… chocolate cake and chocolate peanut butter ganache. I use 4 ingredients in my chocolate peanut butter ganache to make sure it is loaded with peanut butter flavor, and it does not disappoint!
Chocolate Peanut Butter Ooey Gooey Cake Recipe
There are two important parts to this recipe–the chocolate peanut butter cake and the ganache.
How to Make Ooey Gooey Cake
In my other ooey-gooey cake recipes, I used a 9×13-inch pan, but in this case, I preferred the 9×9-inch baking dish. HOWEVER, readers have let me know that it was a bit small and they preferred the 9×13.
Traditionally, ooey gooey cakes were a mistake made by John Hoffman because he used the wrong proportions of two important ingredients–flour and sugar. Using too little flour caused the cake to be flat, which is how they now turn out (on purpose). My point is that in using a 9×9-inch baking dish the cake does come out a little less flat than my other ooey gooey cakes, which is totally okay with me! Once you have the cake made, let it cool while you make the ganache. Yes, more peanut butter!
