This is adapted from a low glycemic cookbook I borrowed from the library. The peanut butter, chocolate chips and buttermilk help to make this a moist, decadent cake. Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups whole wheat pastry flour |
1 cup cake flour |
2 teaspoons baking powder |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup natural-style peanut butter |
1/2 cup butter, room temp |
1 cup sugar |
2 egg whites |
2 teaspoons vanilla extract |
1/3 cup mini chocolate chip |
1 1/2 cups low-fat buttermilk |
1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder |
2 tablespoons peanut butter |
1 1/2 tablespoons water |
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar |
1 pinch salt |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F Coat a 10 bundt pan with cooking spray.
2. In a medium bowl, mix together the flours, baking powder and soda and salt.
3. In an electric mixing bowl, beat together the peanut butter & butter for 1 minute.
4. Add the sugar, egg whites and vanilla and beat for 2 minutes.
5. Mix in the mini chocolate chips on low. Then continue on low and add the dry ingredients alternating with the buttermilk until incorporated.

7. Bake for 55 - 60 minutes or until a wooden pick inserted comes out clean. Cool in the pan on a rack for 10 mniutes.
