Peanut Butter Cake With Peanut Butter Frosting

Wow.... time really flies, isn't it ! Its already the final month of 2014 and 2015 is just about four weeks away. Guess, most home already started doing the spring cleaning. Since my girl is not around to help up this year, I am all by my own. Its OK with me cause I'm doing it one part at a time. Slow & steady, no rush ! hehe... But the next thing I know is I came out with two bottles of peanut butter jam from a drawer which is going to be expired soon. These need to be whipped up quick. And peanut butter cake is on the top of the list. I've been wanting to bake something with peanut butter earlier and what a great excuse to make one.

Peanut butter frosting is one of my favourite. Its simply addictive !

The cake turns out a little dense though but nice overall. I'm wondering if margarine will be the main causes !
