I made this for a small restaurant where I work. I didn't make the strawberry sauce, and we didn't have butterscotch chips so I substituted more chocolate chips for the glaze. We sold it as "Chocolate Peanut Butter Torte" because it came out quite flat, but it was great! The cake smelled like a brownie and the chocolate/PB topping was divine. It needs plenty of time to set up in the refrigerator.
