PB sheet cake makes it to nearly every family function on my hubby's side. I am pregnant with a craving and there's no family event in sight. So, I made my first ever pb sheet cake. The frosting is amazing. It makes the cake. Upon first bite, I was slightly disappointed as the cake does seem a bit bland (though o-so-moist!). My tastebuds caught up and the frosting took over. I think if the cake were any sweeter or any more peanut buttery, I'd be in a peanut butter coma. Both textures of cake and frosting are perfect. I did use all butter instead of butter and oil, and I doubled the icing. Everything else was the same. Great stuff! ETA: It's even better the next day!

Great recipe! Perfect for a peanut butter lover. I would recommend using chunky peanut butter in the glaze and putting that on while the cake is still warm to enable easier spreading.

Not very full of peanut butter flavor. It's ok but not something I'll ever make again

I was a little nervous about trying this cake, but I am so glad I did. It is very moist and peanut buttery. I love this.

It is different than normal cake. It's denser and more oily. It does have good flavor though. I did not use the frosting that was suggested as I'm not a fan of marshmallow. I used a simple light peanut buttercream.

Turned out GREAT (used a buttercream frosting that I added peanut butter to)- good peanut butter flavor. I was afraid it would be oily like previous reviewers but it wasn't. I did add about a 1/4 c. more peanut butter and cut oil to 1/8 c.

I didn't have a 10x15 pan, so I used a standard 9x13 cake pan. I wish someone had said the batter would be very liquidity compared to cake mixes from a box. I thought it wasn't gonna turn out so I added more flour, sugar & PB - my cake turned out quite high but a good taste. I strongly suggest using the right 10x15 pan for this recipe.
