Peanut Butter Banana Bundt Cake With Reeses Peanut Butter Cups Recipes

PEANUT BUTTER BANANA BUNDT CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease or spray a 10-cup Bundt cake pan (I love the new olive oil cooking spray).
• In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the cake mix, puddings, oil, water, and eggs. Add in the peanut butter and mashed bananas and mix until smooth.
• Pour the batter into the prepared cake pan and bake 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
• Once the cake has cooled for at least 10 minutes, flip it over and place it on a platter or plate. Allow to cool completely before adding icing.
• While the cake cools, combine the powdered sugar, butter, and milk in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Add the peanut butter and mix until fluffy and smooth. If the icing seems too thick, add more milk, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the desired consistency is achieved.
• Once the cake is completely cooled, ice liberally with the icing. The more, the better :)
• Sprinkle with mini chocolate chips, if desired, then slice and serve.

PEANUT BUTTER BANANA BUNDT CAKE WITH REESE'S PEANUT BUTTER CUPS

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 350˚F. Generously butter a 9- to 10-inch (12 cup) Bundt pan and set aside. 2. In a medium bowl, whisk the flour, baking soda and salt together. Set aside. 3. In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat the butter until creamy. Add the sugar and beat at medium speed until pale and fluffy. Beat in the vanilla, then add the eggs one at a time, beating for about 1 minute after each egg goes in. Reduce the mixer speed to low and mix in the bananas. Finally, mix in half the dry ingredients all the sour cream and then the rest of the flour mixture. 4. Carefully stir in Reese's peanut butter cup pieces. Scrape half of the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Swirl in half of the the peanut butter, using a toothpick. Add the rest of the batter and smooth the top. Swirl in the remaining peanut butter, using a toothpick. Pound the pan on the counter so the cake batter will settle and even out. 5. Bake the cake for 65 to 75 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Check the cake after about 30 minutes - if it is browning too quickly, cover it loosely with a foil tent. Transfer the cake to a rack and cool for 10 minutes before unmolding onto the rack to cool to room temperature. 6. While the cake is cooling, make the peanut butter glaze. In a medium bowl, whisk together peanut butter, powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract. Whisk until smooth. When the cake is cool, drizzle glaze over the top of the cake. Cut into pieces and serve.

REESE'S PEANUT BUTTER CAKE

Steps:

• Prepare cake according to directions for a 9X13 pan. Set aside to cool.
• For the frosting, mix peanut butter, powdered sugar and vanilla with mixer. Add small amounts of milk until desired consistency is achieved. You want a thinner consistency for easier cutting.
• Spread frosting evenly over cool cake. (Hint -- if cake is partially frozen, there is less "tearing" when spreading the frosting.).
• For the ganache, place the chocolate chips in a heat proof bowl. In a saucepan, whisk together the heavy cream and the vanilla and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Pour over the chocolate chips and let sit for 5 minutes. Whisk until completely smooth then pour over peanut butter frosting.
• Sprinkle the chopped peanut butter cups over the warm chocolate to ensure it sticks. Chill for about 30 minutes to set chocolate.
• As an alternative; you can also use a bundt cake pan. Double your peanut butter frosting ingredients. Fill the bundt pan halfway, add a thin layer of peanut butter frosting, then fill the remainder with the cake mix. Make the peanut butter frosting a little thinner so it "drips" better.
• Another idea would be to add the chopped peanut butter cups to the cake mix before baking.
