Sweet Meat Treats

The Decadent Peanut Butter Kandy Kake Sliders

If you’re craving something sweet, savory with a little bit of spice, you might consider taking a trip to Philadelphia to try the Peanut Butter Kandy Kake Sliders. Adsum chef Matt Levin cooked up this crazy treat in supporting the floundering Tastykake Company.

Levin's invention consists of “two house-ground brisket patties topped with sour cherry-sriracha jam and American cheese, each sandwiched between two of the Peanut Butter Kandy Kakes,” according to Slashfood.The unusual Peanut Butter Kandy Kake Sliders are sold in twos, at $11 for the pair.
