Ingredients
Scale
- 1 box chocolate cake mix
- 4 eggs
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup chocolate chips
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 10×15 inch jelly roll pan.
- In a large bowl, combine cake mix, eggs, oil, and water. Mix until smooth.
- Pour batter into the prepared pan and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- While the cake is baking, make the peanut butter filling by combining peanut butter, powdered sugar, butter, and vanilla extract in a bowl. Mix until smooth.
- In a small saucepan, heat heavy cream until just simmering. Pour over chocolate chips and stir until smooth to make the chocolate ganache.
- Once the cake is done, remove from the oven and immediately spread the peanut butter filling over the warm cake.
- Carefully roll the cake up, starting at one of the short ends.
- Let the cake cool completely, then drizzle with the chocolate ganache.
- Slice and serve.
Notes
- Be sure to let the cake cool completely before slicing to prevent the filling from oozing out.
- You can add more powdered sugar to the peanut butter filling if you’d like it sweeter.
