Peanut Butter-Sour Cream Bundt Cake with Butterfinger Ganache Glaze
It's Day #3 of I Like Big Bundts 2! I'm writing this Monday night and I'm tired. Long weekend. So, I'll just give you the facts.
Peanut Butter. Chocolate. Bundt. Candy. Together.
Peanut Butter-Sour Cream Bundt Cake with Butterfinger Ganache Glaze
Adapted from: Cake Keeper Cakes by Lauren Chattman (page 130)
1 c sour cream
3 large eggs
2 t vanilla
2 1/4 c all-purpose flour
1 t baking powder
1/2 t baking soda
1/2 t salt
1/2 c (1 stick) butter, softened
1 c smooth peanut butter
1 1/2 c light brown sugar
1. Preheat over to 350. Prep a 12-cup Bundt pan.
2. Whisk sour cream, eggs, and vanilla in measuring cup.
3. Whisk together flour, baking powder & soda, and salt in a bowl.
4. Using the paddle attachment, cream butter, peanut butter and brown sugar until fluffy (3-4 minutes). Scape down the sides.
5. With mixer on low, alternate 1/3 dry ingredients with the 1/2 sour cream mix; beginning and ending with dry ingredients. Scape down the sides of the bowl. Turn mixer onto medium-high and beat for 1 minute.
6. Put into Bundt. Bake for 40-45 minutes until toothpick comes out clean. Let cool for 10 minutes then invert onto cookie sheet until completely cool.
The book has a Glaze recipe of 8 oz semi or bittersweet chocolate, 2 T butter, 3/4 c heavy cream. However, I still had ganache leftover from Day #2's Bundt so I melted that down and poured it over this cake!
One chopped Butterfinger bar is sprinkled over the glaze/ganache. Let cake set for at least 30 minutes before serving.

I love Butterfinger candy bars and think it's great that you incorporated them into one of your bundts.

I just LOVE at "I like big bundts" ha ha ha
Wow, looks incredible! I like your big bundts ;)
Butterfingers and bundt cake? I never thought of this before today, but suddenly it's all I want!
Oh my word -- my squeeze the peanut-butter addict would flip for this. Nobody better lay a finger on his Bundtterfinger!
Enjoyed the visual treat last time and am loving it this time too.
heck yeah! that's a good lookin' bundt, and i do love butterfinger!
No more details needed. This looks incredible Mary.
Mary, Mary, Mary, so I'm like TOTALLY behind in my reader and forgot all about Big Bundt's Month and how could I when we all know National Bundt Cake Day is none other than my birthday. Yeah for this month! Can't wait to see all you bring us to the table! ;)
This one looks divine! I'll remember to be back daily now until the big day!
I LOVE this! All of my favorite flavors rolled into one. Wonderful!
Ok just the title of this cake sounds amazing! If I ever get a bundt pan I'm totally trying this!
that orange-like color in the photo is so pretty. i think this one would be my favorite...well, so far.
you know what i wanted to tell you? i have on my list of 'to create' an almond joy like bundt cake with a center filling of coconut. doesn't that sound good?
vanillasugar, Your bundt sounds good except the coconut! ha ha ha. Coconut isn't my favorite, but I'm sure people will kill for that bundt. Sounds great! - mary
I made this bundt yesterday...everyone that tried it liked it but didn't love it. The ganache and Butterfinger was the best part!
Oh my the next cake that I make is definitely going to be this one!! I've never made a peanut butter cake before and I'm sure it would be amazing.
