INSTRUCTIONS
1. Turn on oven to 350°F (176°C) and prepare three 8 inch cake pans with non-stick baking spray and parchment paper in the bottom.
2. Pour the flour, sugar, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder and salt to a large mixer pan and combine. Set aside.
3. Pour the milk, vegetable oil, vanilla extract and eggs to a medium sized bowl and mixing.
4. Pour the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and beat until well combined.
5. Slowly pour the hot water to the batter and mix on low speed until well combined. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed to make sure everything is well combined.
6. Share the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans and bake for 22-25 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs.
7. Take it out cakes from oven and allow to cool for 2-3 minutes, then remove to a cooling rack to finish cooling.
8. To make the frosting, mixing the butter and peanut butter in a large mixer bowl and mix until well combined.
9. Pour about half of the powdered sugar and mix until smooth.
10. Pour 3 tablespoons of water or milk and mix until smooth.
11. Pour remaining powdered sugar and mix until smooth.
12. Pour remaining water or milk and mix until smooth, keeping an eye on the consistency of the frosting so it doesn’t get too thin.
13. To build the cake, use it a large serrated knife to remove the tops of the cake layers so that they’re equal.
14. Put the first cake layer on a serving plate or cardboard cake circle and top with about 1 cup of frosting. Smooth frosting into an even layer.
15. Pour about half of the chopped Reese’s on top of the frosting and press into the frosting. Spread a small amount of frosting on top of the Reese’s so that it’s sticky on top for the next cake layer.
16. Pour the next cake layer and top with about 1 cup of frosting. Smooth frosting into an even layer.
17. Pour remaining half of the chopped Reese’s on top of the frosting and press into the frosting. Spread a small amount of frosting on top of the Reese’s so that it’s sticky on top for the next cake layer.
18. Pour the final cake layer to the top of the cake.
19. puree out the frosting on the sides of the cake, creating a thin crumb coat.
20. Pour about 1 cup of frosting to the top of the cake and smooth into an even layer.
21. Frost the cake using my tutorial for a smooth cake. Stop just before using the paper towel, which won’t be necessary with the pattern on the sides of this cake.
22. Use it an offset spatula to create the stripes around the cake. For guidance, see the video above starting at about 1:40.
22. Set aside the cake aside and make the chocolate ganache. Put the chocolate chips in a heat proof bowl.
23. Microwave the heavy whipping cream until it just begins to boil, then pour it over the chocolate chips. Allow it to sit for 2-3 minutes, then whisk until fine.
24. Use it a squeeze bottle or a spoon to drizzle the chocolate around the edges of the cake, then fill in the top of the cake and equaly it with an offset spatula.
25. Allow the ganache to firm a bit, about 10 minutes, then top with remaining frosting, additional Reese’s chopped in half, and Reese’s crumbles.
26. Input the cake until ready to serve. Serve at room temperature. Cake is best for 3-4 days.
