Instructions
To make the cake:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 12-cup* Bundt pan.
- Whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
- Using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat the butter, brown sugar, and sugar until light and fluffy. Mix in the peanut butter and vanilla. Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- Reduce mixer speed to low. Add the flour mixture in three portions, alternating with two portions of milk. Mix just until combined.
- Transfer the batter to the prepared pan. Bake 60 to 70 minutes, or until a pick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool in the pan on a wire rack for 15 minutes. Then invert the cake onto a wire rack, remove the pan, and allow to cool completely.
To make the glaze:
- Using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat the cream cheese, peanut butter, and confectioners' sugar until combined and smooth. Add 2 tablespoons milk and mix well. Add more milk, a small amount at a time, until the glaze is thick but pourable.
- Top the cooled cake with glaze. If desired, top with chopped peanuts or other garnish.
Notes
- *I've made this cake a few times, and I found that I had better success with a 12-cup pan than a 10-cup pan. It will fit in a 10-cup pan, but it's a little too full for my liking. If you have that bigger pan, I'd definitely go that route.
