Spread half of Peanut Butter Filling over tops of each cake. Chill.
Spread half of Chocolate Glaze over peanut butter topping on each
cake, using metal spatula dipped in hot water. Spread glaze over cake
while glaze is warm.
As glaze cools, it will thicken.

sugar and vanilla to water mixture. Mix until smooth.

the Chocolate Glaze.
