Happy 21st Birthday Leo

I seriously almost ate this cake at least three times while making it. Once, when the chocolate cakes were just out the oven, they were warm and the whole kitchen smelt like hot chocolate. Then again when I was smoothing out the fluffy peanut butter frosting and spreading carmel on top. And finally when it was sitting on my lap in the car on our way to drop it off and I was mega hungry. Bad Nicole. Actually though this cake is for my friend Leo who is turning 21 today. I was asked to make a gooey chocolate peanut butter cake for him so I recreated this cake but covered it in a chocolate ganache buttercream. I loaded the top with chocolate chips, Reese’s peanut butter chips, mini Reese’s peanut butter cups and Reese’s pieces. I’m a little bit overexcited about how well this cake stand goes with the cake. It’s the perfect Reese’s colour (er and my favourite colour!!) and I’ve been dying to use it for so long. I can only imagine how messy this cake was to cut and eat, but messy is good for boys I think. Happy Birthday Leo! x
