Peanut Butter Pound Cake

Serving Size : 12

1 cup butter -- softened

1 1/2 cups granulated sugar

1 cup firmly packed brown sugar

1/2 cup creamy peanut butter

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

5 large eggs

3 cups all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon baking powder

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 cup milk

10 ounces swirled milk chocolate and peanut butter morsels

confectioner’s sugar -- for dusting

Preheat oven to 325°. Spray a 12-cup Bundt pan and set aside.

Beat butter, sugars, and peanut butter at medium speed until fluffy. Add vanilla. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.

In a separate bowl, combine flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add to butter/sugar mixture, alternating with milk, beginning and ending with flour mixture. Stir in morsels. Spoon batter into prepared pan.

Bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes to 1 hour and 25 minutes, until done. If necessary, cover top of cake with aluminum foil to prevent excess browning.

Cool in pan for 10 minutes. Remove to a wire rack to cool completely. Garnish, if desired.

Icing:
1/4 cup creamy P/B
1 (6oz) pack of semi sweet chips

Garnish:
2 Tbls chopped peanuts

Heat oven to 350 degrees. Generously grease with shortening and lightly flour a 12 cup fluted tube pan. In a medium bowl combibe cake mix, milk, P/B, vanilla and eggs. Beat at low speed for 1 minute scraping bowl constantly. Beat 2 minutes at medium speed scraping bowl occasionally. Stir in mini chips and pour into prepared pan.
