This was another recipe I made while camping with family and friends. So simple to throw in the crockpot.
I have a small confession to make though, I forgot to pack the confectioners sugar in the motorhome before we left. The peanut butter layer did not make it on BUT I found some of the new peanut butter whipped topping at the grocery store and had that with me! So I added the whipped topping and what else goes well with chocolate cake? You got it a scoop of ice cream! Needless to say, we were all happy campers!
INGREDIENTS
1 box of chocolate cake mix
1 cup of water
3 eggs
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1/3 cup softened butter
PEANUT BUTTER GLAZE
1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
1/4 cup milk
1 cup powdered sugar
TOPPINGS
1/4 cup fudge sauce
1 package mini peanut butter cups, cut in half
DIRECTIONS
Spray a 6-quart oval slow cooker with non-stick spray. Using a hand mixer mix cake, water, eggs, 1/2 cup peanut butter, and butter on low speed until well combined.
Pour the batter into the slow cooker, cover and cook on high for 1 hour and 45 minutes to 2 hours, if your crockpot runs hot, check after 1 hour and 30 minutes.
Remove slow cooker insert and place on wire rack to cool for 15 minutes.
To make the glaze, whisk together peanut butter, milk and powdered sugar in a medium bowl and spread over the cake. Drizzle fudge sauce over the peanut butter glaze and top with the mini peanut butter cups. Don’t forget a scoop of ice cream and peanut butter whipped topping if your store has it!
Enjoy!
