A lady that I work with (and adore) requested a bundt inspired by her favorite sandwich, peanut butter and pickles. My initial reaction was “this woman is a psychopath” and my second reaction was “oooh, an excuse to use peanut butter chips”. I actually liked this cake more than I thought I would because the honey cornbread and peanut butter chips calmed the pickle flavor. You don’t actually taste the chopped up pickles, just a faint hint of dill from the pickle juice (if I say “pickle juice” three times, does something happen? Do I summon a ghost?).

Pin recipe
Prep pan
- 1 box yellow cake mix
- 2 boxes of Jiffy Honey Cornbread Mix
- 1/3 cup milk
- 4 eggs
- 5 tablespoons butter, melted
- 2 cups of peanut butter chips
- 1 cup of finely chopped pickles
- 1 cup juice from a pickle jar
Bundt Instructions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 325° and prep your bundt with Bundt Gunk or non-stick spray.
Step 2
Mix cake mix and corn bread mix together in a large bowl.
Step 3
Add milk, eggs, and melted butter. Mix until just combined (a few streaks of flour are ok).
Step 4
Add pickles and peanut butter chips and mix until combined. Don’t over mix!

You can’t help falling in love with this bundt cake. It’s got all of Elvis’ favorites: banana, peanut butter, and bacon. While I can’t imagine eating this combination in a sandwich, it’s pretty darn good in a cake. And if it's good enough for The King, it's good...
Pistachio Bundt Cake with Pistachio Ganache
The key to this cake is to keep the actual cake as simple as possible because you will cry for at least twenty minutes while making the pistachio ganache. It’s that horrible to make, but it’s also really worth it, and if you ask me, the salt from your tears really...
Cherry Pie Bundt

Wanut Crunch Bundt
The Walnut Crunch. It was more than just a Tim Hortons donut, it was a lifestyle. Chocolate. Walnuts. Glaze; nothing wrong there (unless you’re allergic to walnuts…hi again, Meaghan). Sadly, the Walnut Crunch met the same fate as the Dutchie: an early death. This cake...
