Peanut Butter Bundt Coffee Cake

This cake is for all the peanut butter lovers. A perfect cake for a celebration with your friends on a cold winter evening with a mug of hot coffee. Make this cake hundred times more delicious by spreading cream cheese frosting on the top. Also, I am using the creamy peanut butter in this recipe which I would suggest over the chunky peanut butter.
