  1. Holy peanut butter!
    My mouth is watering just reading your post. There are so many amazing PB recipes to choose from, but one of my faves is your white choc PB puppy chow. Soo good!

    Another favorite…these PB Chocolate bars that I still have hanging out in my freezer!

    And who can resist chocolate peanut butter fudge?!

    1. Those bars! I make a version and the fudge, too! I have them linked up in my desserts page but yeah graham cracker bars and fudge..cannot go wrong!

  2. i don’t comment much anymore on your blog, but I’m still reading it almost daily! Anyway, this post is such a great recap of recipes that you do well…well that and something with white chocolate in it!

  3. My mouth is watering looking at all this deliciousness! I looooove peanut butter! When I was a raw foodie I didn’t eat it but so glad that I’m eating it again :)
    Fave recipe…. my peanut butter choco chip granola bars, and simply love banana slathered with peanut butter – or maybe a bit of banana with my peanut butter, lol.

  4. It’s a cold rainy morning here, and now I totally want to spend all day in the kitchen making all these peanut butter treats. And instead I have to go to work! Boo. Anyway… special K bars! My friend’s mom used to make those all the time growing up, they’re so good!!

    1. Girl I love them. My grandma’s recipe and I’ve seen similar recipes on Allrecipes and such but hers are just so easy, but so, so good!

  5. I just love looking at the doughnuts! Your pb doughnuts just look amazing. I have mini doughnut pans but need to get the bigger ones. It is tedious to bake so many little ones (cause that’s how many it takes to feed all the boys!)

    Oooh…thumbprints! YUM!! :-)

  6. Wow, recipe overload! Great collection here, thanks! I adore just about anything with peanut butter in it, but chunks mixed into banana soft serve is probably my fave.

  7. I was *thisclose* to posting a recipe for pb cookies today, without actually knowing it was National PB Cookie day! And then I almost made some, but ended up outside in my garden for HOURS yanking weeds.

    Tomorrow. Better late than never?

  8. I think I love you! :) I love all of these recipes and what a great day! Of course I had no idea!

  9. Averie you always have the best desserts!!

    Someone give this lady a cook book : )
