Chocolate Peanut Butter Chessecake

Just made this for my dad’s birthday and it was amazing! Absolutely covered the top with crushed peanuts and they added nice texture. I baked for 45 minutes and the edges were perfect while the center was a creamier fudgey. When cooling, the center sunk, so I filled it in with the peanut butter glaze, and it looked and tasted as a five layer cake. I didn’t have normal peanut butter so I used natural, and didn’t notice anything too off. Great recipe.

Another slice of decadence deserving of a drumroll just in time for EASTER — or the weekend. I give you Peanut Butter Cheesecake / Chocolate Cake. Creamy, melt in your mouth peanut butter cheesecake bakes on top of a fudgy and rich chocolate cake — made in the ONE pan!
