Recipe Notes
- Be sure to grease and flour your cake pan so the cake releases without any stress. You can also use parchment paper. Bring it up over the sides of the cake so you can lift it out. There's nothing worse than when a cake sticks to the pan.
- Keep the leftover cake covered on the counter so it stays moist.
Here's how to make it:
- Combine the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt in a bowl.
- Add the water, vegetable oil and vanilla. Stir to combine.
- Fold in the peanut butter chips and chocolate chips. Pour the batter into a greased and floured square cake pan (or line it with parchment paper).
- Bake in a preheated 350-degree F oven for about 35 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
