Okay with potluck season upon us, I just had to share this food storage recipe with you. It is totally unique (no more boring potluck desserts), delicious, serves a lot of people and EASY to make. Oh, and did I mention that this recipe can be made entirely from food storage? Yes, that’s right, it’s more food storage recipes. With so many benefits, this is bound to be your new summer hit!

Peanut Butter Cake

Serves: 20-24
Unique and delicious cake for a crowd!

Dry Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour (1 cup wheat & 1 cup white)
2 cups white sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
If you are using dehydrated eggs and powdered milk from your food storage; add the powdered measurements listed next to the dry ingredients above, stir together.
1/4 cup egg powder
1 1/2 Tablespoon milk powder

Wet Ingredients:
1 cup water (If you are using dehydrated eggs and milk use 1-3/4 cup water and 1-1/2 teaspoon white vinegar and eliminate the eggs and buttermilk below)
3/4 cup butter
1/2 cup chunky peanut butter (needed for peanut crunch & flavor)
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Only add the next two ingredients if you are NOT using dehydrated eggs and milk
2 Large eggs
1/2 cup buttermilk

Glaze:
Note: Measure one ingredient after another with your same 1/3 cup measuring cup into the same 1 quart Pyrex measure used above for microwaving to save dish washing.
2/3 cup Sugar
1/3 cup evaporated milk or (1/3 cup water and 2 Tablespoons powdered milk)
1 tablespoon butter
1/3 cup chunky peanut butter (needed for peanut crunch & flavor)
1/3 cup miniature marshmallows
2/3 cup chocolate chips, optional if you like the taste of chocolate with your peanuts
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions:
In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking soda salt (and egg and milk powder if using powdered eggs and milk); stir and set aside.

In 1 quart Pyrex measure or mixing bowl microwave wet ingredients 3 to 4 minutes on High or until water and butter boil; stir in peanut butter and oil until blended. Add to dry ingredients; mix well. (If using fresh eggs and buttermilk; add now and mix well.)

Pour batter into a greased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan. Bake at 350° 16-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool about 15 to 30 minutes.

Meanwhile make Glaze; all ingredients in the same 1 quart Pyrex measure or bowl. (It is OK ’cause it is the same ingredients and it saves dish washing!) Heat in the microwave until it boils about 3 1/2 minutes on High stirring after each minute until marshmallows just melt; add vanilla. Spoon over warm cake and carefully spread over the top.
Cool completely.
