Layered cake is considered something special in my book. I have had the divine pleasure of the black and white indonisian cake. I have had layered berry cakes and the list goes on. I know people make crepe cakes by staking crepes on top of each other with gooey fillings in between. But never have I had a crepe cake with layers of crepes baked into the cake. I decided to make one for myself since chocolate crepe cake was exactly what I was craving. I don’t want you think I’m mad as a hatter, but this was one of the best cakes I ever tasted. Make it for yourself…. it’s a special treat. The peanut butter honey frosting and fresh banana slices will seriously make you a firm believer in this cake. Promise.
Ingredients for honey peanut butter chocolate crepe cake:
- 1 – box Devil’s food chocolate cake mix (use measurements for water, oil, and eggs according to box, and mix into batter)
- 12 – ready made Melissa’s produce crepes
- 2 – cups skippy creamy peanut butter
- 1 1/2 – cup honey
- 2 – bananas (sliced into 1/4 inch slices)
Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees fahrenheit.
- Spray two 8-inch round cake pans with a non stick baking spray. Then line the bottom of the pans with wax paper.
- Pour 1/4 cup of cake batter into the bottom of each pan. Then with a spatula spread it evenly across the bottom of the pan.
- Top the thin layer of cake batter with a crepe, then pour another 1/4 batter on top of crepe, spread it out evenly.
- Continue this layering process of cake batter and crepe until each pan has 6 crepes in each, then evenly distribute the remaining batter between both pans.
- Bake the cakes for 25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
- Allow the cakes to cool completely.
- Remove the first cake from the pan and remove the wax paper from the bottom, place on a plate.
- In a bowl whisk the peanut butter and honey together until completely combined. Divide it into two portions.
- Spread the first portion of peanut butter frosting on the top of the first cake.
