Time 2h40m

Yield 12 to 14 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 1/2 sticks (12 tablespoons) unsalted butter, at room temperature, plus more for greasing the baking dish
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/2 cups packed light brown sugar
2/3 cup smooth peanut butter
4 large eggs
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
3/4 teaspoon fine salt
3/4 cup milk
3/4 cup raspberry, strawberry or grape jelly
3/4 cups all-purpose flour
2/3 cup packed light brown sugar
2/3 cup honey-roasted peanuts, roughly chopped
1/4 teaspoon fine salt
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
Confectioners' sugar, for dusting

Steps:

  • Position an oven rack in the center of the oven, and preheat to 350 degrees F. Butter a 9-by-13-inch baking dish.
  • For the cake: Whisk the flour, baking powder, salt and baking soda together in a large bowl.
  • Beat the brown sugar, butter and peanut butter in another large bowl with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until the mixture is light and creamy, about 5 minutes. Scrape down the side of the bowl as needed. Add the eggs, 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Continue beating until the mixture is light and creamy, about 2 minutes. Beat in the vanilla. Reduce the mixer speed to medium-low, and add the flour mixture in 3 additions and the milk in 2 additions, beginning and ending with the flour. Beat until just combined.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish. Spoon dollops of the jelly all over the top, and swirl with the back of a spoon.
  • For the topping: Mix together the flour, brown sugar, peanuts and salt in a small bowl to combine. Add the butter, and mix thoroughly with your fingers or a fork until it has been evenly distributed and incorporated into the flour mixture. Scatter the topping over the batter. Bake until the cake is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 50 to 60 minutes. Let cool in the baking dish on a rack. Dust with confectioners' sugar, cut and serve.

  • For the best flavor, use fresh, high-quality peanut butter. Natural peanut butter is a great option, as it has a richer flavor than processed peanut butter.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
  • To prevent the cakes from sticking to the pan, grease and flour the pan before adding the batter.
  • Bake the cakes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking will dry out the cakes.
