Great Tast
I made this cake today and it was awesome. I will definitely make again. I substituted the buttermilk for 2% milk and it still came out great. And my kids love it:)

I wouldn't rate it as healthy or diabetic friendly, but it sounds very tasty.....I might try it for a church fellowship, that way we can enjoy a piece and the rest will be enjoyed by others.
This was very easy and very good. I sprinklrd mini chocolate chips on top of the frosting.
We love peanut butter in our house, and this is a wonderful cake. Just the right amount of peanut butter taste~cake and frosting!
