Beat together eggs, yolk, sugar and vanilla in a large bowl until light and tripled in volume, about 4 minutes. Fold in nut mixture. Divide batter between prepared pans and smooth tops. Bake 20 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool in pans on a rack.

Cut each cake into 2 layers. Spread 2 of the layers with 1/3 each of the filling. Sprinkle 1/3 of the chopped peanut butter cups over filling. Top with cake layers. Spread remaining filling over top of 1 filled cake. Sprinkle with remaining peanut butter cups. Place 2nd filled cake on top.
