MISSY'S PEANUT BUTTER PASSION CAKE
We are lost for words... This cake is pure peanut butter heaven. It's a classic combination of peanut butter and chocolate. Adding coffee really enhances the chocolate flavor. The cake is dense but so moist. The frosting is light and fluffy, almost like a creamy mousse. This showstopper dessert is almost too pretty to eat!

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour a 9x13x2-inch pan, 2 9-inch round pans, 3 8-inch round pans or 1 10-inch round pan and set aside. Using an electric mixer, combine sugar, oil, eggs and vanilla; beat 1 minute.
- 2. Gradually add remaining ingredients (alternating wet and dry) and beat for 2 to 3 minutes at medium speed.
- 3. Pour batter into prepared pan(s).
- 4. Bake for approximately 40 to 45 minutes or so until cake is done. Cool for 5 minutes and carefully remove from pan(s). Note: 8-inch and 9-inch cakes will bake in less time than 10-inch and 9x13x2-inch cakes so check for doneness.
- 5. Using an electric mixer, combine cream cheese, powdered sugar, salt, and peanut butter until smooth.
- 6. Using a spatula, gently fold in whipped topping until smooth. Chill frosting for about an hour (even overnight is okay). This frosting tastes like a creamy peanut butter mousse.
- 7. Spread cake with frosting.
- 8. Sprinkle all over with chocolate sandwich cookie crumbs. Garnish with chopped peanut butter cups and warmed fudge frosting or as desired.
- 9. For the cooking contest, I carefully cut each peanut butter cup in half and placed it on the cake (as shown in the photo) but what I really like to do is buy 2-3 packages of individually wrapped peanut butter cups (I think there are 8 in a package) and chop them up into chunks. This is easier to do if they're slightly chilled. Pile them onto the top of the cake (broken pieces, crumbs and all) and drizzle that with the softened fudge frosting (first soften it in the microwave for about 10 seconds - just long enough to thin it). Chill until serving time. For a gourmet touch, I like to split the layers or sheet cake in half and spread frosting between the layers as well. If you do it this way (and it's worth it to do it), the cake is much easier to work with if it's very well chilled. Who doesn't like extra layers of frosting? You could also sprinkle finely chopped peanut butter cups on top of the frosting between the layers.

Tips:
- Mise en Place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and equipment ready to go. This will help you stay organized and avoid any scrambling.
- Use Quality Ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will have a big impact on the final product. Use the best ingredients you can afford, especially for the chocolate and peanut butter.
- Don't Overmix the Batter: Overmixing the batter can make the cake tough and dense. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the Cake Properly: Be sure to bake the cake at the correct temperature and for the correct amount of time. If you underbake it, the cake will be gooey and undercooked. If you overbake it, the cake will be dry and crumbly.
- Let the Cake Cool Completely: Before you frost the cake, let it cool completely. This will help the frosting to set properly and prevent it from sliding off the cake.

This Peanut Butter Passion Cake is a delicious and impressive dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its rich chocolate flavor, creamy peanut butter frosting, and tangy passion fruit curd, this cake is sure to be a hit. Follow these tips to make sure your cake turns out perfectly!
