TUNNEL OF FUDGE CAKE
So rich and gooey! This cake is made completely from scratch-no mixes required. The secret to the fudgy tunnel is the addition of the nuts-don't be stingy with them! It's from Pillsbury Best of the Bakeoff.

TUNNEL-OF-FUDGE CAKE
The original tunnel-of-fudge cake won second place in the 1966 Pillsbury Bake-Off Contest for the late Ella Rita Helfrich of Houston. That version used a fudge icing mix to create a gooey chocolate center. But Pillsbury discontinued the icing mix, and the resulting clamor of home bakers led Pillsbury to release a recipe for making tunnel-of-fudge cake from scratch. In 2004, The Times presented an adaptation of that recipe with the help of Shirley Corriher, a biochemist and the author of "Cookwise" and "Bakewise," books about how scientific principles can be applied to cooking and baking.

Steps:
- Place a heavy baking sheet or pizza stone on a shelf in the lower third of the oven. Heat the oven to 350 degrees (see note).
- On a large baking sheet, roast nuts in the oven for 10 minutes. Keep watch that they do not burn. Pour into a bowl, and add 2 tablespoons butter and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Toss well and set aside.
- Generously butter the inside of a large 12-cup Bundt cake pan.
- In a mixer, beat butter to soften until it becomes fluffy. Add sugar, then the brown sugar and continue to beat until airy. While beating, if the bowl does not feel cool, place it in the freezer for five minutes, then resume beating.
- Beat in 3/4 teaspoon salt, vanilla and vegetable oil.
- Beat in two egg yolks. Crack the four whole eggs into a large mixing bowl. With a small knife, cut yolks and barely stir the eggs, minimally blending the whites and yolks.
- With the mixer on the lowest speed, beat the eggs into the batter in three batches. Mix in confectioners' sugar and the cocoa.
- In a large mixing bowl, stir flour and nuts together. Then with a spatula stir the flour-nut mixture into the batter. Pour the batter into the Bundt pan.
- Bake for 40 minutes. You cannot use the toothpick test because the cake contains so much sugar that the center will not set but will remain a tunnel-of-fudge. You are dependent on a correct oven temperature and the 40-minute cooking time.
- When removed from the oven, the cake will have a runny fudge core with an air pocket above the fudge. About 30 minutes after taking the cake out of the oven, press the inside and outside edge of the cake bottom down all the way around to minimize the air pocket. Let the cake, still in the pan, cool on a rack for two to three hours. Invert the cake onto a platter and let cool completely.

Steps:
- Make the cake: Position a rack in the lower third of the oven; preheat to 350 degrees F. Generously coat a 10- to 15-cup Bundt pan with cooking spray. Combine the flour, peanuts and peanut butter powder (if using) in a large bowl. Lightly stir the eggs and egg yolks in a bowl with a fork until they are just streaky; set aside.
- Beat the butter in a large bowl with a mixer on medium speed until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add the granulated sugar, then the brown sugar and beat until fluffy, about 4 minutes. Beat in the peanut oil, vanilla and salt; scrape down the sides of the bowl. Reduce the mixer speed to low and add the beaten eggs in three additions. Beat in the confectioners' sugar and cocoa powder until just combined; do not overmix. Fold in the flour-peanut mixture with a rubber spatula.
- Pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan and spread it evenly. Bake 45 minutes (be careful not to overbake). Transfer to a rack and let cool 20 minutes in the pan. Gently press down on the cake to remove any air bubbles in the tunnel (it's OK if the cake cracks a little bit), then let cool completely in the pan, 3 hours.
- Make the glaze: Whisk the confectioners' sugar, milk, peanut butter, vanilla and salt in a medium bowl until smooth. Invert the cake onto a plate and pour the glaze on top.

CLASSIC TUNNEL OF FUDGE CAKE
This is that same cake that everyone seemed to make back in the '70's. Pillsbury discontinued their line of dry frosting mixes, and came up with their own revised version, which was NOT the same. I was thrilled to find this version in a food column from the "Minneapolis Star Tribune."
