Steps:

• Prepare and bake the cake according to the directions using a 10 inch round pan or 2 -8 inch round pans.
• After it's done, let stand for 10 minutes in the pan.
• Then using a wire rack on top the cake, carefully flip it over to pull it out of the pan.
• Let it sit on a wire rack until cool (at least an hour maybe more.)
• For the peanut butter mix put the rest of the ingredients except the whipped topping into a bowl and beat until creamy.
• Add the whipped topping and hand stir it.
• If you used one cake pan, carefully cut the cake in half.
• Spread one of the cakes with about 3/4 of the peanut butter mix letting it slightly drip (for a yummy looking affect) over the side.
• Put the other cake on top carefully.
• Spread the rest of the peanut butter mix on top of that.
• I sprinkled the top very lightly with a dusting of cocoa powder.
• And then I made up my favorite chocolate frosting adding a little more of the liquid it calls for to make it drippy.
• Then I dripped the frosting across the diameter of the cake all around it, letting it drip onto the plate. (You don't need a full recipe of frosting for this, so you'll have to scale it down or use the rest for something else)
• Put it in the fridge to set. I had mine in overnight, but it may not take that long.
• Happy munching!
