Frosted Peanut Butter Chocolate Eclair Cake Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and line two 9-inch round cake pans with parchment paper.
• Beat butter and peanut butter for cake together with an electric mixer at medium speed until blended; gradually add brown sugar, beating well. Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each egg.
• Combine flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl; add to peanut butter mixture alternately with milk, beginning and ending with flour mixture. Mix at low speed after each addition until blended. Stir in vanilla extract. Pour batter evenly between the prepared cake pans.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of each cake comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool completely on a wire rack.
• While cakes cool, place unsweetened and semisweet chocolate in the top of a double boiler; bring water to a simmer and cook until chocolate melts, stirring often, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Beat 1 cup butter with an electric mixer at medium speed until creamy. Add melted chocolate, powdered sugar, cocoa powder, milk, and vanilla extract; beat until spreading consistency.
• Place peanut butter and 1/2 cup butter in a small bowl. Beat with electric mixer at medium speed until creamy. Add powdered sugar gradually, alternately with milk, until frosting is thick and spreadable. Beat an additional 3 minutes.
• Remove 1 cooled cake layer from its pan and frost with chocolate buttercream frosting. Place second cake on top and complete frosting with chocolate buttercream.
• Frost a thick line on the top and bottom edges of the cake with peanut butter frosting using a frosting pouch fitted with a cake decorating tip. Place 16 dollops of peanut butter frosting around the perimeter of the cake. Place mini peanut butter cups on each dollop. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• 1. Spray a 9 x 13 inch pan with cooking spray. Set aside and make the pudding mixture. In large bowl combine the pudding mix, milk and peanut butter with a hand mixer. Mix about 2-3 minutes until all ingredients are combined. Fold in the whipped topping and chocolate chips.
• 2. In the sprayed 9 x 13 inch baking dish, layer 7-12 graham grackers.
• 3. Add half the pudding mixture on top of the crackers, smooth it out and layer another 7-1/2 graham crackers on top of that. We're getting there.
• 4. Add the remaining pudding mixture to the top of the second layer of crackers and top with the final 7-1/2 graham crackers. Now it's time to make the frosting.
• 5. In medium size bowl, combine softened butter, cocoa, peanut butter and milk. Now add the confectioner's sugar and salt. Spread over top layer of graham crakers and sprinkle with chopped peanuts. Cover well with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 12 hours.
• 6. Carefully cut the cake into 16 pieces and serve. The hardest part about making this cake is the waiting time, and I must admit the slicing process is a bit tedious, but it's all worth it. Enjoy!

Steps:

• In a large bowl, cream butter and peanut butter until light and fluffy. Beat in vanilla. Stir in the confectioners' sugar, cocoa, salt and enough milk to achieve a spreading consistency.

Steps:

• Beat pudding mix and milk in large bowl with whisk 2 min. Add peanut butter; mix well. Stir in COOL WHIP. Layer 1/3 of the grahams and half of the pudding mixture in 13x9-inch dish, breaking grahams as necessary to fit. Repeat layers. Top with remaining grahams.
• Microwave chocolate and butter in microwaveable bowl on HIGH 2 min. or until butter is melted, stirring after 1 min. Stir until chocolate is completely melted and mixture is well blended. Spread over grahams.
• Refrigerate 8 hours.
