The PB&J sandwich is considered a traditional American sandwich. It seems like a strange combination, but once you try it, you're hooked on the rich, sweet, and salty flavor, and it seems like it couldn't get any better. But no. There's an even more delicious option: a PB&J sandwich cake. To create this large, sweet peanut butter and jelly sandwich, peanut butter cream is spread between two sponge cake layers, then topped with grape jam. The cake is cut in half diagonally, looking just like a large sandwich.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


    Bake a sponge cake

  1. Grease a 22cm square cake pan with butter, line it with parchment paper, grease it again with butter, and dust it with flour. Knead the dry mixture into a dough ball and fill the pan three-quarters full (you'll have some dough left over). Bake at 350°F (170°C) until a toothpick inserted into the cake comes out clean, 30-35 minutes.
  2. Use a knife to cut off the top of the sponge cake.

  3. Cool the cake in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn it out onto a wire rack and let it cool completely. Transfer the cake to a work surface. Trim the top with a serrated knife, then cut the cake in half horizontally.

  4. Beat the cream in one bowl and the jam in another with a mixer.

  5. Using a mixer, beat the butter and peanut butter until smooth. Add the powdered sugar and milk alternately, beating after each addition, until the glaze is fluffy and smooth. In another bowl, beat the grape preserves until they become more liquid.
  6. Spread peanut butter glaze on the bottom layer

  7. Spread a thick layer of peanut butter frosting over the bottom half of the cake.
  8. Spread grape layer on top of peanut layer and cover with top sponge cake

  9. Spread grape jam over the peanut butter glaze to the very edges. Top with the other half of the cake.
  10. Cut the cake diagonally like a sandwich

  11. Cut the cake in half diagonally and transfer it to a serving platter. Separate the halves slightly to expose the filling.
