Chocolate Peanut Butter Dump Cake
Prepare a chocolate cake mix according to the package directions and pour batter into the Deep Covered Baker. Using the Medium Scoop, dollop a can of chocolate frosting all over the top of the cake batter. Then dollop a cup of peanut butter over the top of that.
Put it in the microwave uncovered and cook for 11-12 minutes. Scoop into bowls and top with ice cream or cool whip.

I'm still learning how to perfect this recipe. When I've made it, it actually has worked better to turn it out onto a platter, that way the melted frosting and peanut butter can drizzle down and get absorbed a little bit into the cake. I found that when I kept it in the baker, the cake was a little dry and you had to scoop out the good stuff from the bottom. The down side is that I don't have a cake cover that can go over it, as opposed to just using the lid when it's in the baker.Also, the past couple times I made it, the peanut butter was too thick in the clumps. So certain pieces had a lot of PB and others didn't have much at all. I was thinking of experimenting with mixing the PB with the frosting in the small batter bowl first, and then scooping it over top. I'll have to try that some time and let you guys know how it turns out.
