Peanut Butter Sheet Cake & Maple Frosting
It’s time for peanut butter bash again! This month we are pairing peanut butter with maple syrup. I have to admit, my first thought was to just make some peanut butter pancakes with some regular maple syrup. But then my brain went into a few other directions before I had an epiphany! Peanut Butter Sheet Cake & Maple Frosting!! I had been promising the hubs that I would make him a sheet cake. He had never had one before & was curious what all the rage was about. I planned on making him a chocolate one to start, but then with this idea I just couldn’t resist.
This peanut butter sheet cake comes together so quickly. The maple frosting is UNREAL!! So incredibly good. Oh my goodness. You will love this flavor combo.
