Ingredients

• 1 box Betty Crocker™ SuperMoist™ yellow cake mix
• 1¼ cups water
• ½ cup creamy peanut butter
• ⅓ cup vegetable oil
• 3 eggs
• ¼ cup butter or margarine
• ¼ cup packed brown sugar
• 1 cup whipping cream
• ½ cup creamy peanut butter
• 1 container (1 lb) Betty Crocker™ Rich & Creamy chocolate frosting
• 1 cup chopped peanuts, if desired

Directions

• Heat oven to 350°F (or 325°F for dark or nonstick pans). Generously grease bottoms only of 2 (8- or 9-inch) round cake pans with shortening or cooking spray.
• In large bowl, beat cake mix, water, ½ cup peanut butter, the oil and eggs with electric mixer on low speed 30 seconds. Beat on medium speed 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Pour into pans.
• Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes. Run knife around sides of pans to loosen cakes; remove from pans to cooling rack. Cool completely, about 1 hour.
• In 2-quart saucepan, melt butter over medium heat; stir in brown sugar. Heat to boiling; boil and stir 1 minute. Remove from heat. Refrigerate 10 minutes.
• In chilled medium bowl, beat whipping cream on high speed until soft peaks form; set aside. In another medium bowl, beat ½ cup peanut butter and the brown sugar mixture on medium speed until smooth and creamy. Add whipped cream to peanut butter mixture; beat on medium speed until mixture is smooth and creamy.
• Split each cake layer horizontally to make 2 layers. Fill each layer with about ⅔ cup peanut butter mixture to within ½ inch of edge. Frost side and top of cake with frosting. Press peanuts onto frosting on side of cake. Store covered in refrigerator.
