Okay, we've all talked about it - I made it this morning and...WOW!!! This is definitely an "Oh my gosh", show-stopping, hypoglycemia-inducing cake. And it's every bit as delicious as it looks (and not hard to make at all!). Just a couple of quick comments: We used instant espresso because we couldn't find espresso powder. Quite frankly, I couldn't taste the difference between the base cake with espresso and a chocolate cake without it (granted, I haven't had chocolate cake in a while). Also, I thought the peanut butter filling and ganache overpowered the base cake. In fact, the peanut butter could really easily cast its shadow over everything else, so I'd probably not recommend using the entire batch of filling (we didn't, and it was perfect). Thanks for this delectable recipe! Thanks for the input, Sarah. I love hearing people's results - I'm always learning something new! PJH
