         2 c  brown sugar -- packed
         3    eggs
         2 c  unsifted all-purpose flour
         1 TB baking powder
       1/2 ts salt
         1 c  milk
         1 ts vanilla

   :          **PEANUT BUTTER FILLING:
         1 c  cream cheese -- softened
       1/2 c  creamy peanut butter
   :          **CHOCOLATE GLAZE:
       1/2 c  water
         4 TB unsalted butter
       1/2 c  cocoa -- sifted
         1 c  powdered sugar -- unsifted
         1 ts vanilla
   
   In large mixing bowl, cream butter and peanut butter
   until light and fluffy. Add brown sugar. Mix to blend.
   Add eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each
   addition.
   
   In small bowl, combine flour, baking powder and salt.
   Add flour mixture to butter and peanut butter mixture
   alternately with milk, beginning and ending with flour
   mixture. Add vanilla.
   
   Pour batter into 2 well-greased and floured 9 inch
   cake pans. Bake in preheated 350 degree oven until
   cake tests done, about 45 minutes. Cool on wire rack
   to room temperature before frosting the cake. Spread
   half of Peanut Butter Filling over tops of each cake,
   using metal spatula dipped in hot water. Spread glaze
   over cake while glaze is warm. As glaze cools, it will
   thicken.
   
   PEANUT BUTTER FILLING: Cream ingredients together
   until light and fluffy.
   
   CHOCOLATE GLAZE: Place water and butter in small
   saucepan. Bring to a boil. Add cocoa, sugar and
   vanilla to water mixture. Mix until smooth.
   
   CHEF'S NOTE: This recipe will make either two 9-inch
   cakes or one stacked layer cake. If making the stacked
   layer cake, the Peanut Butter Filling should be put
   between the layers and on top ofthe cake before
   topping it with the Chocolate Glaze.
   
   (There was no information on how many servings this
   recipe will make.)
