The King's Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana Bourbon Cake

From Marcel Desaulniers, Death by Chocolate Cakes comes this moist and unbelievably extraordinary cake..................The King's Chocolate Peanut Butter Bourbon Cake.

I really enjoyed making this cake.........There is something about baking a banana cake, that just makes my home feel so good, the aroma from my kitchen oven flowed all through the house, with such a comforting feel to it.

It has been said the Elvis's favorite sandwich was a Grilled Peanut Butter Banana sandwich, I made one once with my Panini machine and to me it was fabulous, almost like dessert itself, so when I saw this cake, I knew I had to make it..........

I also heard Elvis like fried Pickles..........This I could and will pass on (LOL)

This cake is made in four different steps and did take me, two days to make it.

First you bake the Banana Cake, then you make the Sweet Chocolate Peanut Butter Icing,
assemble cake and refrigerate several hours or over night which is what I did.
Next...........You make the Quintessential Chocolate Ganache..................I have never made a Ganache this way, a little different, but not much, it was easy to work with.........
Last, garnish with reserved icing, Banana slices and whole peanuts

"Elvis would have loved it!!"
