List of Ingredients
Step 1
1 C. oatmeal
1 1/2 C. hot water
Step 2
1 C white sugar
1 C brown sugar
1 Stick butter
2 Eggs
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla extract
Step 3
1 1/2 C. Flour
1 tsp. soda
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp cinnamon
FROSTING
1 1/2 sticks butter
2 C brown sugar
4 T. water
2 T vanilla extract (You MUST use 2 TABLESPOONS)
1 1/3 C. Peanut butterRecipe
Step 1: pour water over oatmeal and let sit for 5 minutes
Step 2: Cream all ingredients together. Add step one.
Step 3: Add all the step 3 ingredients to Step 2, mixing thoroughly. Pour into a 9 x 13 pan. Bake in a preheated 350 oven for 30-40 minutes depending on oven. Cake is done when knife inserted comes out clean.
Frosting: Bring all ingredients, except peanut butter to a boil for 1-2 minutes stirring. Take off heat and add peanut butter and stir until smooth. Pour hot frosting over hot cake. Frosting will not be real thick, but will set up as the cake cools.
I usually start the fudge during the last 5 minutes the cake is baking and pour over the cake the second it comes out. I always use a clear glass Pyrex to watch the fudge seep down the side.
There is always a family fight over who gets the end pieces of the cake. They are encased in the peanut butter fudge! YUM
