Ingredients

1 cup flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup sugar
3 tablespoons cocoa powder
2 tablespoons butter melted
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter

Topping

1/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon cocoa powder
1 cup boiling water
1/4 cup peanut butter melted

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F.
In a medium sized mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, sugar and cocoa. Then stir in the melted butter, milk and peanut butter. (This makes a thick batter.)
Spread the mixture into a greased 1.5 qt casserole dish (or square pan). Set aside.
In another bowl, combine the dry topping ingredients (sugar, brown sugar and cocoa). Sprinkle on top of the batter; do not stir.
Pour the boiling water on top; do not stir.
Bake for 30 minutes, or until the top of the cake is almost set. (There will still be some jiggle as the bottom will be runny). The cake will rise to the top and a pudding will form on the bottom.
Drizzle the melted peanut butter (I just put it in the microwave for 20-30 seconds) on top. Serve warm with vanilla ice cream.
