Best Nutter Butter Cake Recipe - How to Make Nutter Butter Cake

Step 1Make cake: Preheat oven to 350°. Grease two 8” cake pans with cooking spray and line the bottoms with parchment paper. In a large bowl using a hand mixer, beat together butter, sugars, and peanut butter until light and fluffy. Add sour cream, eggs, and vanilla, and mix until smooth.

Step 2In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. Add half of the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, beating until just combined. Pour in the milk and mix until fully incorporated. Add remaining dry ingredients and stir until just combined.

Step 3 Divide batter between prepared cake pans. Bake until a toothpick inserted into each comes out clean, about 35 minutes. Let cool in pan then invert onto a wire rack to cool completely.
