Tips for Baking the Perfect Peanut Butter Cake:

  • Creaming Butter and Sugar: Creaming butter and sugar together is an essential step for a light and fluffy cake. Cream them until they are pale and fluffy, and the sugar has dissolved.
  • Add Eggs One at a Time: Adding eggs one at a time helps prevent the batter from curdling. Beat each egg into the batter until it is fully incorporated before adding the next one.
  • Do Not Overmix the Batter: Overmixing the batter can result in a tough and dense cake. Mix the batter only until the ingredients are combined.
  • Proper Baking Temperature: Bake the cake at the correct temperature and for the specified time. Use an oven thermometer to ensure that your oven is at the correct temperature.
  • Cooling the Cake: Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting. This will help prevent the frosting from melting and sliding off the cake.
