Notes
Sour cream - I used full fat sour cream, and I always recommend full fat while baking. You can use any kind though.
Milk - I used 2% milk, but any dairy or non-dairy milk works.
Peanut Butter - Crunchy or smooth peanut butters both work, but do NOT use natural peanut butter. It is to runny and will affect the batter.
