The favorite classic combination of Chocolate and Peanut Butter combine magically to form this delightful Peanut Butter Bundt Cake with Chocolate Cheesecake Filling!
I know it’s been a while since my last post, but trust me, it’s worth the wait!
Together with a blogging pal of mine, we’ve declared March 25th Chocolate and Peanut Butter Day! Welcome to the festivities, hosted by yours truly and Carla of Chocolate Moosey. To help you celebrate this monumentous (and totally made-up) food holiday, I’ve joined with a group over over 30 bloggers to bring you lots of delicious, calorie-laden, drool-worthy treats starring everyone’s favorite flavor combination. For even more chocolatey, peanut-buttery goodness, follow along with out hashtag, #ChocPBday. You can also follow our Chocolate-Peanut Butter pinterest board here.
We’ve got three awesome companies sponsoring prizes too, so make sure to check out our giveaway below – then visit the sponsor’s websites: OXO, King Arthur Flour Peanut Butter and Co.
Naturally, for a day as exciting as this one, I had to combine all of my favorite things. Peanut Butter? Check. Chocolate? Check. Bundt Cake? Check. Cheesecake? Check. Seriously, I did get all of that into one delicious dessert. Now go make it. Whatcha waiting for?
- Filling:
- 8ounces cream cheese
- ½ cup sugar
- 1 egg
- 2 T cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 2 teaspoons flour
- Batter:
- 1 cup peanut butter
- 2 cups sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 5 eggs
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 2 cups flour
- ½ cup milk
- Glaze:
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- ¼ cup cocoa powder
- 3 Tablespoons milk
- 1 Tablespoon oil
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
- Preheat oven to 325. Grease a bundt pan very well with floured baking spray and set aside.
- In a small bowl, whisk together all of the filling ingredients until smooth. Set aside.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer on medium speed, beat together the peanut butter, sugar, vanilla extract and eggs and baking powder until smooth and creamy.
- Turn the mixer to low, and add half the flour, followed by the milk, and then the remaining flour. Beat until just combined.
- Pour about ⅔rds of the batter into the prepared bundt pan. Pour the chocolate filling into the center of the batter. Try not to let it touch the edge. Pour the remaining batter over the chocolate filling.
- Bake at 325 for 60-70 minutes, until a cake tester comes out clean.
- Leave the cake to cool in the pan for at least a half hour before un-molding it.
- Once cake is fully cooled, prepare the glaze.
- Combine all ingredients for the glaze together in a small bowl until smooth. Drizzle over cooled cake.

I love making chocolate peanut butter haystacks. It is a great combination of salty and sweet. When I feel lazy and don’t want to melt the chocolate and peanut butter, I’ll take a (big) spoonful of peanut butter, lots of chocolate chips and pretzels and munch away!

It’s gotta be chocolate peanut butter fudge for me!
I love peanut butter cups and almost anything that combines pb and chocolate. The cake looks amazing.
Peanut butter and chocolate, a match made in heaven!
I’ve always wondered how these “tunnel of whatever” cakes are made… mystery solved! I love that it’s something super-easy, too, because now I have a super-impressive dessert I can add to my arsenal.
I mean, who wouldn’t be totally impressed when you slice into what looks like an ordinary bundt cake and then POW, hidden chocolate cheesecakey awesomeness suddenly appears? Too cool.
I love white chocolate peanut butter cups.
Chocolate cupcakes with peanut butter frosting are fantastic!
Thank you so much for putting this wonderful day together with Chocolate Moosey’s help. And this recipe? When the chocolate inside………….good grief, I’m starving now!
This looks really good.
Has anyone tried it with crunchy peanut butter? (It’s all I have in the house) I wonder if the texture would work..
I wouldn’t recommend it… Sorry!
I guess I’m a bit if a snob. It’s handmade truffles that I love. My favorite flavor (at the moment) is bittersweet chipolte. Heaven!
My favorite is definitely peanut butter crepes!
Miriam! We finally did it! We finally got our event together 😀 Thank you for all of your hard work. Shall we do it again next year? 🙂 Love how you also did cheesecake for this event.
I love chocolate cheesecake and having some as a filling in this peanut butter bundt cake is just brilliant!

@Miriam Can this be made with parve cream cheese and soy milk?
Yes!
