Double Chocolate Pound Cake with Peanut Butter Glaze

Apart from our favourite chiffon cakes , pound cake is another choice which often appears on our baking list. Although most pound cake recipes called for an equal amount of butter, sugar and flour in “1 : 1 : 1” ratio, this recipe is slightly different because more butter is being used than usual.
