I just made this delicious sounding dessert for a dinner tonight, but when I whipped the peanut butter whipped cream In my stand mixer (with the wire whisk attachment) the solids separated from the liquids and began splashing the liquid everywhere. What did I do wrong?
JudyH, my thought is that you had the mixer too high of a speed.
Made this cake it was a hit . My grandson said best thing he has ever tasted!! Thank you for your recipe.
Such a rich and creamy cake, perfect for celebrating holidays and birthdays with the family.
Definitely be sure to use a whisk attachment on the blender when making the topping! If you don’t, the Peanut will separate and not separate and not work!
