This cake was a bit dry for my taste. I think I'll try adding some extra milk next time.

I'm not a huge fan of peanut butter, but this cake is still really good. The chocolate flavor really balances out the peanut butter.

The peanut butter flavor is subtle, which I actually prefer. It's not overpowering at all.

This peanut butter cake is the real deal! It's incredibly moist and flavorful, with a perfect balance of peanut butter and chocolate. The frosting is also amazing - light and fluffy, but still packed with peanut butter flavor.
