Moist Chocolate Cake Recipe
Here’s your line up. Nice and easy for ya!
Let’s start with the cake batter shall we?
How To Make Chocolate Bundt Cake
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. and spray bundt pan with non stick cooking spray.
- To prepare cake, place cake mix, pudding mix, eggs, cream, oil, sour cream, water and peanut butter into a stand mixer. Beat on low until well combined. Batter will be thick. Transfer to prepared bundt pan and bake for 45-55 minutes, or until baked through. Let cool for 20 minutes before turning cake onto a cake stand. Let cool completely.
- To prepare icing, melt peanut butter in microwave for about 30 seconds. Stir in sweetened condensed milk until well combined. Drizzle part over cooled cake and add a second layer after 15 or 20 minutes. Save remaining icing for individual slices of cake.
1 box of chocolate pudding mix.
4 large beautiful eggs.
Heavy cream or milk will do 🙂
A little oil and sour cream.
Peanut Butter! Now…please note, you can leave the peanut butter out if you’d like just a fabulous chocolate bundt. You can even add some chocolate chips that would be delish.
Do not be alarmed, your batter will be very thick.
The Best Bundt Cake Recipe
Place it right into your bundt pan.
Spread it nice and even, then time to bake!
Ahhhh, there it is, baked and perfect! Let this baby cool.
How To Make Icing
This icing is completely deadly. I wanted to swim in the darn stuff 🙂
Shortly before serving, drizzle that perfect icing right on top. It will drip down the sides, but no worries, more to dip your cake slices into.
Enjoy!

I like to add peanut butter to anything and everything. Adding it to a cake sounds amazing. 🙂
I love chocolate and peanut butter together! This cake looks so delicious and that peanut butter icing sounds amazing!
I’ve made this recipe multiple times and I get the highest praises each time I make it. In fact, friends and family request this cake all the time 🙂 The key to the icing is making sure you use enough peanut butter to make the icing thicker to drizzle. I also top the icing with chocolate chips…can’t have enough chocolate.
Also – do not substitute regular peanut butter for chunky – chunky changes the consistency and it does NOT work!
Enjoy – this is one of our favorites!
This looks amazing! I shared your recipe in my latest post about Thanksgiving cakes. I hope you don’t mind! : )
