My guests loved it and said it tasted just like a pb & j sandwich. I wanted to just eat the frosting out of the bowl it was so tasty. Thank you for writing such clear instructions in the recipe. It was my first time using a double boiler and a piping bag so I was thankful to have clear directions. It did take me 4 hours to make…but it was worth ever minute of it. My guests loved it and the cake made a happy memory for my bfs birthday.

I don’t have any 6 in ones. What would I need to do to convert to 8 in instead. Thank you

Um, possibly it was the peanut butter. Did you use a creamy brand, like Jif or Skippy? Another possibility is that it just baked a little too long. You might enjoy this article about baking time and how just a few minutes can really make a difference in the final texture. Hope it helps! https://thecakeblog.com/2017/04/baked-to-perfection.html

Hi Terrie – sorry to hear you had trouble with this recipe. Were you using 6″cake pans? This recipe will make enough for three 6″ rounds.

Tessa used a Wilton 6B to pipe the stars on top.

If your jelly won’t spread smooth, heat it in the microwave for a second or two until it’s loose enough to spread. Be careful not to overhead as hot jelly could melt the buttercream and/or drip too much.

Tessa used a seedless strawberry jelly. Go for a brand that you love in your PB&J sandwich. Grape would be delicious too!
