Answering "Wondering"'s questions: 1) cooking in the coffee can makes it 100 times easier to remove. You can actually turn it upside down and the cake should come out (if you greased it well enough - for me it's about 80% success rate). 2) look at the proportion of peanut butter to nuts. Simply using chunky peanut butter wouldn't yield anywhere near the same nuttiness. You could increase the amount of peanut butter (chunky kind) but then the density of the cake might not be the same. Just chop nuts in a mini chopper or something, it's simple. And lastly, this is a tasty recipe. It's a dense cake since there is no egg in it. More like a brownie cake.
A couple questions about this one. 1. Why the extra container and not just the plain crock-pot bowl? 2. Why not use crunchy peanut butter instead of creamy and then you dont have to chop the nuts?
