Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cake

hi everyone!! hope you’re all having a wonderful day so far and staying well during these hard times. even though it’s part of my job, i’ve been finding a lot of happiness in baking and sharing with my family. Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Cake was a huge hit and it’s decadent vegan cake in all it’s glory. i wouldn’t call this a health food but it’s certainly better for you than most sweets out there.

if you don’t have the ingredients for the frosting, no worries because it’s perfectly delicious as is! you can also use nut butter or melt some chocolate chips for a drizzle!
