Ingredients

Cake

1 Package Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free Chocolate Cake Mix

2 Eggs, lightly beaten

2/3 cup Milk

1/3 cup Oil

2/3 Cup Boiling Water





Peanut Butter Frosting

1 cup Peanut Butter & Co. Smooth Operator, room temperature

1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened to room temperature

1/2 tsp. kosher salt

2 cups powdered sugar

1 tsp. vanilla extract

1/4 cup heavy cream


Directions

  1. For the cake: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour two 8-inch round cake pans.

  2. Pour cake mix into a mixing bowl. Make a well in the center and pour in eggs, milk and oil. Stir until well combined. Add boiling water and stir to mix, creating a very loose batter. Pour batter into prepared pans.

  3. Bake for 20-25 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool in pans for 10 minutes. Remove from pans to wire racks and cool completely before frosting.

  4. For the frosting: Combine Peanut Butter & Co. Smooth Operator, butter, and salt in the base of a mixer with a whisk attachment and whisk for 2 minutes until evenly combined.

  5. Beat in the powdered sugar, followed by the vanilla and heavy cream until light and fluffy.

  6. Use immediately to frost cake.
