Happy Birthday Elvis!

"The King" has been gone for more than 30 years, but that hasn't stopped fans from gathering to celebrate his birthday each year - often times by chowing down on one of the "Hound Dog" crooner's favorite foods: peanut butter.

Presley, who was born Jan. 8, 1935 in Tupelo, Miss., would have been 74 today. He died at Graceland – the Memphis mansion that has become a shrine – on Aug. 16, 1977.

There is an annual birthday ceremony at the historic house, but fans all over the country are toasting the "Heartbreak Hotel" crooner's special day in unique ways too.

Here are some options for those who aren't goin' to Graceland – including a tasty snack option right here in New York City. Our suggestions:

- Watch the party online: Fans can tune in to www.elvis.com to watch a live Webcast of the birthday party planned at Graceland

- Eat a PB, B & H: Go to Peanut Butter & Co. at 240 Sullivan St. in Greenwich Village and order "The Elvis." The shop offers what's said to have been Presley's favorite sandwich described as such: "A grilled peanut Butter sandwich, stuffed with bananas and honey. Try it with bacon for that extra indulgence. Long live the King!"

- Enjoy a cupcake! If you happen to be in Beverly Hills, the Sprinkles bakery is offering a limited edition banana cupcake with peanut butter frosting named "The King" today only. If you're not in Los Angeles, you can place an order for the sweet treat online at: www.sprinklescupcakes.com
