This was a really moist & delicious cake. I had an abundance of peanut butter that I needed to use up so I used about 3/4 peanut butter instead of the chips. I also used a yellow cake mix because that's what I had on hand and made it in a bundt pan. I added the satiny chocolate glaze from this site (with a heaping tbsp on pb added to it). I said all of that to say that this recipe is pretty versatile and you can easily alter it with what you have on hand. The result is incredible peanut buttery goodness!

These were so moist and delicious. I used peanut butter instead of chips cause that's what I had on hand. I also doubled the amount of chocolate batter before I added the one and a half cups of the peanut butter batter to it. I wanted them equally chocolately and peanut buttery! I made a ganache w/bittersweet chocolate and cream and they were fantastic. Thanks!

I used melted creamy peanut butter instead of the chips. I also increased the amount to 2 cups of peanut butter, this helped cover the "white cake" flavor. Next time I make this I will reserve about 1 cup of batter and use the cocoa powder to flavor that instead of the butter mixture. I didn't really taste the chocolate so I think this will enhance that flavor more. I made it into a double layer cake with milk chocolate frosting.

Good recipe. I didn't love the peanut butter chips, though. I thought it would've had more of a peanut butter taste with real peanut butter, so I'll try that next time.

The only downside to this cake is that it gets a few bowls messy. I Made this for my friend's birthday and it was a hit. The birthday girl even said it "made her birthday." and everyone at the party gobbled it up. Iced it with chocolate buttercream frosting and sprinkled chopped up Reese's cups on tops.

This cake was so amazing! I made it in a bundt pan, it ended up a bit messy. But it was so good. I followed others advice and used peanut butter frosting (from this site), I also added crushed peanut butter cups and mini chocolate chips over the top (after I frosted it).

I used a cup of creamy peanut butter instead of peanut butter chips, and I threw in a little vanilla. This went over awesome! It was rich and moist and dense, and the peanut butter lovers were in heaven! I left the leftovers for a family with kids, and they brought their friends over just to taste the cake.

Excellent. I made this for my son's birthday, at his request. The cake is moist and dense - just the way we like it. I baked it in a bundt pan for 1 hour, frosted with pb frosting and decorated with mini choc chips and chopped peanut butter cups. Thanks for the recipe - I see a repeat in our future. ;)

This cake is SO GOOD! I made 2 round layers with peanut butter frosting and mini chocolate chips on top and in between the layers. For the frosting I used pre-made cream cheese frosting mixed with natural peanut butter. I also used natural peanut butter in the recipe instead of peanut butter chips. Everyone at my husbands birthday party said it tasted just like a Reeses peanut butter cup - yum!

This cake was very tasty, though there wasn't a very pronounced peanut butter or chocolate flavor like I anticipated. It baked up beautifully, though, filling the pan completely, and had a light texture. I was in a hurry and needed a quick frosting, so I used Betty Crocker chocolate, with the leftover peanut butter chips melted and stirred in before spreading it. That PB/chocolate taste was more pronounced and really yummy with this cake.

I made this for a friend. She gave it 5 stars! With Butter Cream store bought frosting, I added melted peanut butter chips, with a dab of shortening, mixed them together and had a peanut butter cream frosting! Yummy!

A nice alternative to other marble cakes. I covered it with chocolate buttercream icing and put peanut butter chips on top. It was delicious!

I didn't think that the batter tasted like PB at all. I sprinkled PB chips over the top, that made the cake!

This cake was very good, everyone who tried it really enjoyed it! One thing, I was well into making the cake and realized I was out of eggs. I subsituted a healthy splash of milk instead and this cake came out wonderfully! I used peanut butter frosting, which was the perfect complement! Will definitely make this one again!

Very good! I would have liked it to be more chocolatey, as the prevelant flavor was peanut butter. Maybe not making all the batter peanut butter flavored and then dividing it, but instead dividing the plain batter and flavoring each half seperatly would work. It was very tasty with fluffy peanut butter frosting (from this site).

This recipe was used for my son's birthday. He loves peanut butter. Although the cake turned out nice, I was a little dissapointed at the taste. I was hoping for a burst of flavor and this recipe just didn't get it. Next time, I may add more peanut buter chips and more cocoa as well as some vanilla and a full cup of brown sugar. I will exchange some of the butter and shortening with applesauce to help reduce the fat content. I found a recipe for peanut butter frosting and then topped the cake with mini chocolate chips, it made a great presention. Still a good cake, but for my family's taste, we would like it kicked up a notch.
