I'm really not a recipe-creator - does anyone have a similar recipe? Or do you think I could just try that peanut butter frosting everyone seems to love on the Elvis cake - is it stiff enough?

Look no more and give these a try. http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/236893 These have become my pb brownie go to after a multitude of attempts at other recipes and methods. Just made a batch last night using an alternative method---pb cups from the Halloween booty (broke up 6 cups and added to my favorite brownie recipe.) I use the Epi pb layer and ganache, but my own fudgey brownie recipe and I half it using an 8x8 pan. These freeze beautifully too.
