we use this recipe for the cake

http://everybodylikessandwiches.com/2011/05/happy-birthday-cake-to-me-black-magic-cake-with-vanilla-bean-buttercream/

and this for the two icings

http://smittenkitchen.com/blog/2008/08/chocolate-peanut-butter-cake/

so it is a devils food cake (easy, moist!) with peanut butter cream cheese frosting and dark chocolate peanut butter fudge ganache.

The cake is wonderful with the vanilla bean icing in the first recipe as well.

I will take a picture later of the cake and post it!
