Caramel & Peanut Butter Cake - I Love Cake (March)

I was wondering what to do as a theme, and then I thought I would go with

MOTHER'S DAY

seeing as though its Mothering Sunday this month. It also means that the theme is open to any interpretation you see fit - any cake or bake you like can be linked up.

My offering is a cake that I have made for myself as I am a mummy and no one else will be making me one!

The recipe is kind of made from what I happened to have in my cupboards today so its a bit of a made up combination!

Ingredients Cake:

200 g unsalted butter

175g caster sugar

25 g cocoa powder

3 tbsp peanut butter (I used smooth but crunchy would be ok)

4 eggs

1 tbsp natural yogurt

2 tbsp toffee sauce ( i used carnation already made toffee sauce)

200g self raising flour

Ingredients Filling:

qty buttercream ( I used ready made )

toffee sauce

galaxy ripple

Method:

Pre-heat the oven to 170oC fan and 190C and grease and line 2 sandwich tins

Put all the ingredients except the flour and cocoa powder into a large mixing bowl and beat together until creamy .

Add the dry ingredients and combine well

Divide the batter between the tins (you may have some batter left as I did so I made some muffins too)

Bake in the oven for 25-30 mins until cooked right through

when completely cooled spread some butter cream onto to one sponge and some toffee sauce onto the other

Put the cake together and mix a little buyer cream and toffee sauce together to make a topping to spread on top of the cake. I then added some crumbled galaxy ripple as a tasty decoration

This is a very indulgent cake and quite sweet but very nice :)

Ok so now its your turn, please link up a cake you would like for mothers day, or one your mum likes or maybe a recipe passed down to you from your mum.
Maybe your child/children are baking you a cake which they might like to link up. 

Come on.....show me the cake love xx
