7 Mistakes To Avoid When Making Peanut Butter Cake With 5 Star Chunks

By Bhavana Verma

Not Checking Peanut Butter Type

Natural peanut butter made with peanut and salt is different than commercial one's made with oil and sugar, therefore use homemade peanut butter.

Adding 5 Star Chunks Too Early

5 Star chocolate melts quickly therefore freeze the chunks before adding to batter.

Skipping Salt

Salt balances the sweet and nutty flavor, and homogenizes the flavor profile of the cake.

Overmixing the Batter

Overmixing can make the cake dry while baking so mix gently until ingredients come together.

Baking at High Temperature

High temperature won’t speed up the process, instead it will burn the surface and keep the center uncooked.

Neglecting Moisture Content

To add moisture to the cake, add sour cream, yogurt, or buttermilk.

Garnish

Use 5 Star chunks for garnish and avoid using it all up in the batter.
