I love being a blogger, my new way to save, keep, and share my recipes. It satisfies my baking desires and my artistic side. Like this Chocolate Peanut Butter Bundt . I love the chemistry involved in baking and seeing ingredients take on new shapes, textures and tastes. I feel like a mad scientist in the kitchen sometimes trying different things.
Of course you never see the ones that turn out to be flops or fail, the pie crusts that shrunk in the pie pan, the fillings that never set, only the good results. You never the the beautiful cheesecake that almost ended up upside down on the floor! WHEW! Nice save!
Taking on new challenges is fun!
Trying new recipes and sharing them is why I love baking and cooking. Spending time together with someone in the kitchen lends one to share hearts openly and what better way to get to know someone. Suxh a healing presence in the kitchen where it is warm, and cozy, and smell awesome. Right?

Its very exciting to see the results of my baking and think through what I would change next time to use a recipe. This recipe for Chocolate Peanut Butter Bundt requires no alterations in the recipe. I wouldn’t change a thing.
Bundt cakes are easy and adaptable to any recipe. I have taken some of my regular cake recipes and baked them in a bundt pan and they take on a whole new look because of the shape or type of pan used like these Strawberry and Vanilla Bean Bundt Cake, Chocolate Chip Bundt cake , Orange Cranberry Bundt Cake.
There are some really awesome and specials pans available now.and I have recently bought some new one and they make spectacular cakes. Check out my recipes for Lemon Blueberry bundt cake and Orange Cranberry bundt cake. Sooooo pretty, and tasty too!
This cakes comes from a recipe that I used before but adapted for a friend who’s favorite candy is Reeses’ peanut butter cups. The peanut butter filling and toppings of ganache melt in your mouth and the cake is like a chocolate chiffon. I used cake flour to make it as light as possible yet moist and delicious.
See the peanut butter filling hiding in the cake to give your testbeds and added surprise with a little crunch from the peanuts. By beating the egg whites in this cake and using cake flour they add a lightness to the batter to give you a cake that is not dense in texture but fluffy and flavorfull.
Now isn’t that easy and delicious?
