welcome friends it is Saturday morning so we're gonna do another one of our
Saturday morning most viewed recipe videos on the youtubes video and today I
want to make a peanut butter sheet cake recipe and there we go and we'll filter
that by view count and the number one recipe is peanut butter
sheet cake recipe Noreen's kitchen so we'll take a look at that let's just
take a look at some of the other ones
interesting so apparently also six years ago we
posted a Texas peanut butter sheet cake I've completely forgotten about that
just quite awhile ago let's take a look and and compare the recipes ours is a
little bit different than Maureen's so we're gonna make Noreen's and let's get
going
so this is a very easy cake recipe it would almost fall into the category of a
dump cake because you're you're mixing pretty much everything in this pot and
then just dumping it into a jelly roll pan to bake it very easy so start it out
I've got butter water and peanut butter and I'm gonna put that into a pot and
bring it to a boil so that the butter melts together with the peanut butter
and everything else and the first thing I'm going to say about this recipe is I
know I'm going to get a different result than Noreen just because of the peanut
butter that I use Julie and I use a peanuts only peanut butter so the only
ingredient is peanuts roasted peanuts that are ground together to make peanut
butter and I know that most of the peanut butters for sale in the grocery
store here in Canada and the United States sugar is the second ingredient
and then salt so there's a lot they are a lot sweeter and a lot saltier than the
peanutbutter that I'm using here in fact when I was at the grocery store the last
time to get peanut butter I looked at all of the different brands there were
some brands where sugar was the number one ingredient and then peanuts so those
must have been really sweet which is probably also the way that they could
make that peanut butter the cheapest one on the Shelf so into here there's flour
and I put in salt and baking soda I didn't change the amount of salt to
compensate for the peanut butter I'm gonna see how it tastes I often like
things a little less sweet anyway so we mix that together and we're good to go
on to the next step while we're still waiting for the butter and peanut butter
to melt together I'm going to put together buttermilk vanilla extract and
the two eggs
and we'll just whisk that together so here we go we're just coming up to a
boil so we'll pull that off the stovetop and the first thing in is the sugar and
we'll mix that in and that will help to drop the temperature a little bit and
once the sugar is mixed in we'll put in the flour so this is a little bit lumpy
I'm gonna switch to a whisk which should help it come together faster and I'm
gonna pour in the buttermilk and egg mixture at the same time looking good
and so the whisk I chose this is a heavy-duty whisk you don't want a you
don't want a really lightweight balloon whisk because it's not gonna work now
I've got a jelly-roll pan 11 by 17 I believe or 11 by 15 11 by it will be on
the screen because I don't remember the exact size pour this in
oh my yep okay there's a little bit worried there that we had too much
batter and not enough pan now into the oven and while the cake is baking we'll
make the icing or frosting and so that's butter buttermilk and peanut butter and
we'll just melt that together get it all nice and incorporated
and once this comes up to a boil we take it off the heat and now we stir in some
powdered sugar icing sugar depending on where you live it might be called
something differently and the amounts given are just an approximation you
start out and you put it in you mix it in and then you mix in a little bit more
in a little bit more until you get it to kind of a spreading consistency
something that you want to put on your cake and again I'm gonna switch to a
whisk to finish this we also put in a little bit of vanilla at this point as
well okay so the icing is looking really good which is great because there's only
a few seconds left on the timer for the cake and it should go off now so pull
the cake out of the oven
and I'm gonna put it on top of a sheet tray I had a look at the cake a couple
minutes ago just before it was done and I noticed that it had domed a little bit
more than I thought it would or that I think it should and I'm afraid that the
icing is going to pour off the edges you want to put the icing on while the cake
is hot the hope is that it will soak in a little bit so on it goes
and you can spread this on with a spatula or the back of a spoon however
you want and as I suspected it did run off the edge would have made a horrible
mess if I hadn't put the other pan down I think the problem is my jelly roll pan
might not be as large as it needs to be I've often found that where you think
they're supposed to be standards manufacturers just don't follow them and
I think this pan is maybe just a little bit too small so I probably won't end up
using all of the icing now looks like I've got enough on there we just let
this cool down and set up before we go ahead and eat it
all right nice job on this cliff so this is the most watched peanutbutter sheet
cake on the youtubes it looks pretty soft like it looks moist yeah it is
really soft did you poke holes in it no ok so there's just a couple yeah very
peanut buttery so your aunt served us those peanut butter cookies on the
weekend and all I could think about was damn Butterfinger all I want is being a
putter that's why that peanut butter sheet cake and what's funny is that's
pretty good for you buddy yeah I like peanut butter about five or six recipes
down from this one is one of our videos and what I thought was funny was I don't
remember doing it we've cooked a lot of food claims so I don't remember doing it
and comparing the two recipes they came up with in a couple months of each other
and ours has brown sugar instead of all white sugar which would change the
flavor a little bit I think this is a brighter yeah it would be a lighter
color yeah this is a brighter peanut butter flavor than with the brown sugar
I just keep and to me it's the right level of sweetness I think it's pretty
sweet though it is it is very sweet I wonder would be like without the icing
as we always say yeah it would still be really because this moist but I like
that I like that glaze on the top you do like the glaze did you like I mean I
love the extra sugar but you know um mind you you just let put a chocolate
glaze on top just that yeah you didn't put it or you could you could put the I
make it a chocolate hand lace or make it a chocolate cake with the peanut butter
glaze yes oh you could be a bar jams like a jam please a strawberry jam glaze
with banana pieces it's almost a sandwich we could call it the Elvis they
call it the Elvis things have to be funny okay um
you could have a lot of fun with this cake I think it's a base cake
