So many birthdays this month and last! My birthday was just one month ago and contrary to my customary birthday rituals, I did NOT bring birthday treats to share with co-workers. For shame!
Therefore, I am living vicariously through one of my coworkers who kindly brought birthday treats for her own birthday today. Against my better judgment, I just had to have one. What better way to get through a Monday than with peanut butter and chocolate!
Speedy Little Devils
- 1 (18 0z) box Devil's Food Cake Mix
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
- 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
- 7 oz. marshmallow creme
- Combine melted butter and dry cake mix.
- Reserve 1 1/2 cups cake mixture for topping.
- Put remaining crumb mixture into bottom of ungreased 9x13 inch cake pan.
- Top that layer with combined peanut butter and marshmallow mixture & spread evenly.
- Crumble remaining mixture on top and press into filling.
- Bake 15-20 mins at 350 degrees.
- Cool.
I'm told this only takes 30 minutes max to prepare! Love. it. That's why their called "Speedy"! :)
I wanna do research on butter substitutes because this recipe call for a whole heck of a lot! Other substitutions: might be able to use a muffin pan instead of cake pan, Skippy Natural peanut butter (yummm!), and I've also heard of organic marshmallow creme (?).
Do you have a favorite birthday treat recipe? I'd love to see it!
Best wishes to all Spring birthdays!
