Peanut Butter Lovers Cake (THM:S, Low-Carb, Sugar-Free!)
Who else is a huge peanut butter fan? I’ll be the first to admit that peanut butter is one of my favorite things! If you’re obsessed with peanut butter, my Peanut Butter Lovers Cake is going to be right up your alley. It’s rich and decadent and best of all, it has a bakery style crumb that I worked for a long time to perfect!
This cake is a variation of my Mini Peanut Butter Blossom Cakes. I wanted to lighten up the recipe, so I used Trim Healthy Mama’s Baking Blend. The Baking Blend gives it an even better texture than almond flour, so I was happy! Instead of putting it in mini cake pans, I spread it in one pan. Instead of a complicated ganache, I whipped up a simple peanut butter frosting. Voila! An easier, lighter cake that tastes even better than the original.
This recipe makes one layer cake or 2 9-inch round pans. You’ll notice that there’s not a whole lot of icing either. This is totally intentional on my end. Like I said, this is a really rich cake and I felt that too much icing would be overload. Feel free to double the icing recipe if you want to really indulge. My husband said to tell you that double icing would make this cake even better. 🙂
