This didn't turn out pretty, but it tastes good!!! Chocolate cake with peanut butter fudge icing.

Cake:
2 1/4 cup flour
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup warm coffee
1/2 cup vegetable oil
2 teaspoons vanilla
I just threw the icing together with peanut butter, powdered sugar, margarine and a little oil until it was a good consistency. I didn't measure.

Pretty is overrated...it's the taste that counts. 
Definitely looks like it tastes good!

I think it looks fabulous. I am salivating right now. I so love peanut butter and chocolate together. Great job!

Thanks everyone!!
You're welcome. I've substituted the strong coffee for strong apple cider before, and that gave it a great flavor! I sometimes just sprinkle powdered sugar on top when I make this cake, instead of an icing. It's very easy to make and extremely versatile.

The raisin spice cake I made last night. I am going to have a slice with either tea or hot chocolate after I clean the snow off my car
That looks so tasty PTree. What kind of a cake tin/pan did you use ? It looks like a kind of Kuglehopf tin.
Thank you, shyvas. It's a Bundt pan. With a flatter-top cake you would invert the cake to see the decorative lines, but this cake is almost like a quick bread so it's cracked and bumpy on top. It calls for a tube pan, but I like using the Bundt pan.

Is it similar to this one ? I have two of them in terracota ; a standard siz and a mini tin.

It's similar to the one on the bottom, I think. I can't remember whether mine is a 10-cup or 12-cup measure. They come in a few sizes, but I would say it's close to a standard size.
It is not quite as deep as my one. Come to think of it, I have one similar to yours in my garage.
I am on a roll. Vegan sugar cookies.
Vegan sugar cookies.

Peace
I'm so eating that mickey head red one!
Lol, ledboots! Those are new this year. I got the cookie cutters (there's a Mickey hand and a star one as well) in Disney World in May.
