I have been wanting to make this cake for a while now, and this weekend I finally decided it was time. I am a very experienced baker, so I'm not sure what I did wrong, but the cake was extremely dry. I cut a slice of cake, took a bite, and proceeded to separate the cake layers from the peanut butter filling, throw the cake pieces away, and eat only the peanut butter filling (which was excellent). I was very disappointed!! I mixed it as little as possible, so I'm not sure what I did wrong. I'll try it again someday, though.
Sorry about your experience with this recipe, Kelly. Try calling our Baker's Hotline (802-649-3717), they can try to figure this out with you. PJH
