Peanut butter cake

It’s fundraising by way of cake making and selling at work tomorrow and as last year’s star baker, with a tried and tested Nigel Slater recipe, I felt I had to up my game this year.  I found this on the BBC Good Food website and it ticked all my boxes.  However, I was unable to find Dulce de Leche at short notice so I subbed it for Reeces peanut butter chocolate spread and have my fingers crossed for tomorrow’s tastings.  Cake didn’t rise well and I suspect my SR flour is a bit too old so when I make it again I will get new flour!

I’ve been eyeing this one, from ‘Simply Nigella’ for a while.  Whilst I love eating this kind of thing I’ve never had a go at cooking it before.  In the ratio of big flavour set against ease of cooking this scores high - there was nothing complicated to do and it was delicious.  A keeper.
