Pour batter into prepared Bundt pan. Tap it on the counter a few times to shake out any hidden air bubbles.

Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Pound Cake Step 5

Bake 1 hour and 20 minutes, setting a timer to check on the cake at 1 hour to ensure it’s not browning too quickly on top. Tip: If browning is already occurring after 1 hour, place a piece of foil loosely over the top and continue baking.

Test the cake by inserting a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the cake is done baking.

Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, remove the cake from the pan and set it on a cooling rack, allowing it to cool completely.

In a medium bowl, whisk together all the glaze ingredients until smooth.

Diva’s Tip

The glaze will eventually set. If you want to speed up the process, place it in the refrigerator for 10 to 15 minutes.
