Oh hey, are you new here? I hope you'll connect with me on Facebook, Twitter, email, or another option over there on the right.
Who doesn't like a good bundt cake. You don't have to worry about stacking layers, no cupcake liners, and you can still pile on the frosting.
I tried something new with this one and added peanut butter to the cake batter. Result: amazingly moist and delicious cake! With the addition of peanut butter cream frosting...you better get a big ol' glass of milk with this one. Seriously, this cake is amazing!
I'm pretty excited to take this one to work. I think it will make my co-workers veryyyyy happy.
