What a yummy cake this was, and easy to make with ingredients I always have on hand. We loved it, and Hubs put vanilla ice cream with his and says that sent it over the top. I also melted my chocolate in the microwave at 30 second intervals to be sure it didn't seize up. Mine was perfectly baked at 30 minutes. I'll be keeping this recipe on hand! Thanks Nat, for another keeper!

This cake was easy to make, with common ingredients, and it was delicious! It took about 45 minutes to bake in my oven. I followed the recipe as directed except I microwaved my chocolate chips to melt them instead of using a double-boiler, and I didn't measure my peanut butter -- I just put on a THICK layer over the whole cake.
