CHOCOLATE CHIP- PEANUT BUTTER POUND CAKE WITH PEANUT BUTTER GLAZE

It’s Chocolate Chip Week here on the Recipe Girl blog. It’s not official or anything, but since pretty much everything tastes better with chocolate chips added to it, I thought it might be fun to share some of my favorite chocolate chip treats with you. First up is a Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Pound Cake.

INGREDIENTS:
CAKE:

• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup creamy peanut butter (don't use natural)
• 1/2 cup butter, at room temperature
• 3 cups granulated white sugar
• 6 large eggs
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 1 1/2 cups chocolate chips

GLAZE:

• 1 1/2 cups sifted powdered sugar
• 1/4 cup milk
• 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips

DIRECTIONS:
1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Spray 10-cup tube pan generously with nonstick spray (I like the Pam Baking Spray).[[[
2. Prepare cake: In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt; set aside. In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together peanut butter and butter. Add sugar and beat an additional 5 minutes. Add eggs and vanilla; beat until well combined. Add dry ingredients a little at a time, beating just until incorporated. Stir in chocolate chips. Scrape batter into prepared tube pan. Tap it a couple of times on the counter to shake out any hidden air pockets.
