Meow, girlfriend...I am trying to lose weight here! This sounds way too good!
Yum. I just left Daisy's blog with her great recipe and somehow managed to resist the urge to go stuff my face and the first thing I see is this post, lol.
Catching up with my favorite blogs is gonna have to wait because I'm going hunting in the kitchen!

Hi, Meow, the chocolate part of the cake sounds fantastic, but I have to decline the peanut butter; I will never understand how you guys use it in such ways....LOL
Love n hugs, Daisy xxxxxxxxxxxxx
Thanks for the recipe Meow, does sounds lovely but same as Daisy, would have to leave the peanut butter off :)
Love.

So THIS is why the kitchen was such a mess this morning! That explains it!
I WAS gonna make spice cake cupcakes last night, in honor of Dante's birthday, but I stressed myself right into a migraine and never really recovered.
But I sure did notice the kitchen when I got up... I knew something had fueled his eating frenzy, lol!
Sounds yummy... I'd leave the peanut butter off, too, but that's just cause cream cheese frosting is my fav!
Dante & Tiggs, Sorry to be the trigger for a binge and messy kitchen (grin)!
Daisy and Ronnie, I'm confused. Don't you have PB in the UK or don't you like it or is it something else - like the whole marmite thing - that doesn't translate to American? Of course, the chocolate is the important part of any recipe, but my childhood birthdays wouldn't have been the same without the PB frosting! Lots of candies mix chocolate and peanuts, so I see it as a natural fit. Of course, I could put anything sweet on top and love it, too!!
Sara, I know, I know!! I was hungry all day yesterday! And I can't ever have it again since I'm now eating gluten-free! Bummer!

Meow, yes we do have PB here in the UK, but I find it so gross and yes same as marmite, you either love it or hate it and I hate PB. YUK :)
