Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Baking soda
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.75 cups Unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1.5 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cups Brown sugar
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter, softened
- 0.5 cups Creamy peanut butter
- 4 Large eggs
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1.25 cups Whole milk
- 1 cup Mini chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar (for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Generously grease a bundt pan with butter or cooking spray, then lightly dust with cocoa powder to prevent sticking.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and cocoa powder. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, butter, and peanut butter until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes using a hand or stand mixer.
Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
Gradually alternate adding the dry ingredients and milk to the wet ingredients, starting and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix just until combined, being careful not to overmix.
Fold in the mini chocolate chips using a spatula to ensure they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Pour the batter evenly into the prepared bundt pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean.
Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes. Then carefully invert the cake onto a wire rack to cool completely.
Once cooled, dust the top of the cake with powdered sugar for a simple garnish, or serve as is for a rich, chocolatey dessert.
