Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Bundt Cake with Chocolate Glaze

Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Bundt Cake with Chocolate Glaze

The first recipe I ever made with my new bundt cake pan was this peanut butter cake.  It is so moist, soft, and bursting with Peanut Butter & Co. The Bee's Knees' flavor. It reminds me of a giant peanut butter cookie, but in cake form. Each slice is quite dense and studded with chocolate chips. I love it finished off with a sweet chocolate glaze. Peanut butter and chocolate fans will go crazy for this!

Ingredients

For the cake:

3/4 cup (1.5 sticks) salted butter, softened to room temperature 

1 cup Peanut Butter & Co. The Bee’s Knees 

2 1/4 cups granulated sugar 

1/2 cup light brown sugar 

2 teaspoons vanilla extract 

5 large eggs 

3 cups all-purpose flour 

1/2 tsp baking powder 

1/2 tsp salt 

1 cup milk 

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips 


For the chocolate glaze:

3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips 

3 tbsp salted butter 

1 tbsp light corn syrup 

1/4 tsp vanilla extract 

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray a 10” bundt cake pan with nonstick spray, set aside. 

  2. Using a hand or stand electric mixer, combine butter, Peanut Butter & Co. The Bee’s Knees, sugars, and vanilla in a large bowl; beat until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Set aside.

  3. In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt; slowly mix into the wet ingredients alternately with the milk. Slowly fold in 1 cup chocolate chips. Pour into prepared bundt pan.

  4. Bake until light golden brown – about 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.

  5. Cool in pan for 15 minutes. Remove from pan and cool completely on wire rack.

  6. Make the chocolate glaze: In a medium microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate chips, butter, light corn syrup, and vanilla extract. Microwave in 30 second increments, stirring after each time, until completely melted and smooth. Drizzle warm glaze down the sides of cake.
