Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 cups granulated sugar
• 0.25 cups unsweetened cocoa powder
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 cup butter
• 1 cup Coca Cola
• 0.5 cups buttermilk
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 0.75 cups creamy peanut butter
• 1.5 cups powdered sugar
• 0.5 cups heavy cream
• 0.25 teaspoons salt

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13-inch baking dish or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, unsweetened cocoa powder, and baking soda.

Step 3

In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the Coca Cola and bring to a gentle simmer. Remove from heat.

Step 4

Pour the warm Coca Cola mixture into the dry ingredients and gently mix until partially combined.

Step 5

Add buttermilk, eggs, and vanilla extract to the batter, and stir until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.

Step 6

Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.

Step 8

While the cake cools, prepare the frosting. In a medium bowl, whisk together the creamy peanut butter, powdered sugar, heavy cream, and salt until smooth and spreadable.

Step 9

Spread the peanut butter frosting evenly over the slightly cooled cake.

Step 10

Preheat your oven's broiler to high. Place the frosted cake under the broiler for 2-3 minutes, keeping a close eye to prevent burning. The frosting should bubble and caramelize slightly.

Step 11

Remove the cake from the oven and let cool completely before slicing and serving.
