Ingredients   (view qty in metric system instead)
Cake:
1 cup unsalted roasted peanuts
3/4 cup all purpose flour
6 large eggs
2 large egg yolks
1 cup brown sugar
1 tsp. vanilla extract

Filling:
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1/2 cup butter, room temperature
5 tbsp. powdered sugar
1/2 cup heavy or whipping cream
9 ounces Reese's peanut butter cups, finely chopped

Topping:
1 1/2 cups heavy or whipping cream
3 tbsp. brown sugar
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
1/2 cup unsalted roasted peanuts, coarsely chopped
three 2 ounce Butterfinger bars cut into 3/4 inch wedges
1/3 cup Reese's Pieces candies

Directions
For Cake:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Butter and flour two 9 inch round cake pans. Grind nuts with flour in a food processor until finely chopped. Beat together eggs, yolk, sugar and vanilla in a large bowl until light and tripled in volume, about 4 minutes. Fold in nut mixture. Divide batter between prepared pans and smooth tops. Bake 20 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool in pans on a rack.

For Filling:
Blend peanut butter, butter and sugar in a food processor until smooth. Gradually add cream with machine running until mixture is light and fluffy. Invert pans and remove cakes. Cut each cake into 2 layers. Spread 2 of the layers with 1/3 each of the filling. Sprinkle 1/3 of the chopped peanut butter cups over filling. Top with cake layers. Spread remaining filling over top of 1 filled cake. Sprinkle with remaining peanut butter cups. Place 2nd filled cake on top.

For Topping:
Beat together cream, sugar and vanilla until almost stiff. Spread over top and sides of cake. Press nuts into bottom edge of cake. Sprinkle Reese's Pieces over top of cake.
