Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  5. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  6. Gradually add the dry ingredients, alternating with the milk, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  7. Mix in the peanut butter until well combined.
  8. Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared cake pans.
  9. In another large bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth.
  10. Add the sugar and beat until creamy.
  11. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
  12. Stir in the vanilla extract and peanut butter until well combined.
  13. Spread the peanut butter cheesecake mixture evenly over the peanut butter cake batter in each pan.
  14. Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the cheesecake layer is set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  15. Let the cakes cool in the pans for 15 minutes, then remove from the pans and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  16. In a large mixing bowl, beat the butter and peanut butter until creamy.
  17. Gradually add the powdered sugar, alternating with the heavy cream, beating until smooth and fluffy.
  18. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  19. Once the cakes are completely cooled, place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread a layer of jelly over the top.
  20. Carefully place the second cake layer on top, cheesecake side down.
  21. Frost the top and sides of the cake with the peanut butter frosting.
  22. If desired, drizzle extra jelly over the top of the cake for decoration.
