How to Make Peanut Butter And Chocolate Bundt Cake

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10-inch bundt pan.
  2. **Peanut Butter Filling:** In a medium bowl, beat together 1 cup creamy peanut butter, 4 ounces cream cheese (softened), and 1/4 cup unsalted butter until smooth and creamy.
  3. Beat in 2 large egg yolks, one at a time, then stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  4. Gradually beat in 1 cup granulated sugar and 1 cup all-purpose flour until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Transfer the peanut butter filling to a piping bag fitted with a 1/2-inch plain tip. Place upright in a tall container and refrigerate.
  6. **Chocolate Cake:** In a small bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder and 1 cup boiling water until smooth. Stir in 1 cup sour cream.
  7. In a large bowl, cream together 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter and 1 3/4 cups granulated sugar until light and fluffy.
  8. Beat in 4 large eggs, one at a time, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  9. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  10. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the chocolate mixture, beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
  11. Spoon a little less than half of the chocolate batter into the prepared bundt pan.
  12. Pipe a ring of peanut butter filling over the center of the chocolate batter.
  13. Spoon the remaining chocolate batter over the peanut butter filling.
  14. Gently tap the pan on the counter to remove air bubbles.
  15. Bake for 55-65 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out with moist crumbs.
  16. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before inverting onto a wire rack to cool completely.
  17. Once completely cool, whip 1 cup heavy cream and dollop onto slices of cake. Sprinkle with chopped peanuts before serving.
