Chocolate Chip & Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cake is a deliciously hearty and delicious breakfast oatmeal coffee cake loaded with chocolate and peanut butter chips and topped with a melted peanut butter drizzle! YUM!! Somebody stop me! NO…don’t! 🙂

Sometimes you just want something fast, simple and tastes freaking awesome any time of the day!  Ya know what I mean?  Now this takes some time in the oven, but to put it together, it doesn’t take long at all for the prep, only 15 minutes!  

So, Can we talk?  I think all I really need to say is ‘Chocolate and Peanut Butter’. ‘Oatmeal Cake’ on the end of ‘Chocolate and Peanut Butter’ sounds pretty yummy too!

The aroma of the cake permeating in the house is…“Um…Can we talk?”  Is anyone familiar with SNL “Coffee Talk”?  Because I’m saying this “Um…Can we Talk” like she would.  Yea…I’m a little warped, but I couldn’t resist. You have to say it with that New York Bronx-ish accent! Ha!  

“Coffee Talk with Linda Richman” is a series of sketches performed by Mike Myers on the sketch comedy show Saturday Night Live. 

Popular back in the 90’s, Myers plays a stereotypical Jewish middle-aged woman named Linda Richman with an exaggerated New York accent who sports long, painted fake nails; lots of gold jewelry; gaudy sweaters; large dark glasses; and big hair, which she constantly adjusts. This character was a spoof on his real-life mother-in-law, Linda Richman.^{[1]  (pretty much quoted directly from Wikipedia.)} 

Besides, “Can we talk?”, her other popular phrases included “I’m a little verklempt” (emotional) and  “Talk amongst yourselves“!  Classic!  It’s a scream.  I love Mike Meyers, he’s hilarious!   

Anyways, I’m a little verklempt over this Chocolate Chip & Peanut Butter Oatmeal Cake!  My next new bff!  😉  

This is what you call a yummy snackin’ cake.  Snack in the morning, snack in the afternoon, snack in the evening….see where I’m going with this?
