If you – just like us – belong to a peanut butter and Nutella fan tribe, this cake will take you to heaven: it includes both ingredients that combined together create an unforgettable experience. Obviously this is not the healthiest cake in the World, but I do believe that if you have it from time to time it will do no harm to your waistline nor to your overall healthy diet. But I bet it will bring a smile to your face!
It is a speedily made cake: your oven will probably need more time to heat up than you will need to prepare it. It means that – in case of unexpected guests – you could have it ready in slightly more than half an hour. And you don’t have to worry about ingredients, probably – just like us – you always have them in your cupboard 😉
