Step-by-Step Instructions
Let’s jump right in! Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Then, in a large mixing bowl, combine the chocolate cake mix, water, vegetable oil, and eggs. I love using an electric mixer for this step, but if you don’t have one, a whisk works just fine. Beat the mixture until it’s smooth and well combined, then pour it into a greased 9×13 inch baking pan. Now, here comes the fun part! In a separate bowl, mix the peanut butter and powdered sugar until creamy. Take spoonfuls of this delightful mix and dollop it on top of the cake batter. Don’t worry about being neat – the chaos will create that lovely earthquake effect! (See the next page below to continue steps…)
