For a richer flavor, try using brown butter pound cake. Add a pinch of sea salt to the peanut mixture to enhance the sweet and salty contrast. Store the finished Blarney Stones in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For a festive touch, use green food coloring to tint the frosting.
