Peanut Butter Loaf Cake with Frosting
Peanut Butter Loaf Cake
1/2 cup butter
2/3 cup milk
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon peanut butter
1 1/2 cups sugar
3 eggs, beaten separately
2 1/2 cups flour
1 teaspoon vanilla
Cream the butter. Add the sugar; beat until creamy. Add the peanut butter, mixing well. Add the milk to the beaten yolks of the eggs and combine with the sugar and butter. Sift into this mixture the flour, baking powder, and salt. Fold in, very lightly, the stiffly beaten whites of eggs. Turn cake mixture into a square or round greased loaf pan. Bake at 350 degrees for about 40 minutes.
Frosting
2 cups shaved maple sugar or brown sugar
1/2 cup water
2 tablespoons peanut butter
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
2 egg whites, beaten very light
Boil sugar and water until it forms until it forms a soft ball when tested in cold water (238 degrees). Pour over the beaten whites of eggs, pouring in a steady stream, adding while beating the peanut butter.
Beat until creamy, adding vanilla just before using. The cake should be cool just before frosting. Remove from the pan and cover with frosting, heaping rather high on the top.
